CSUN is arguably one of the most diverse universities in the nation. Despite this, the university has been behind the curve when it comes to culturally themed housing.
Many universities such as Cal State LA, UCLA, and UC Berkeley have already implemented this in their housing communities. Many students at CSUN said that it would help to build a community and give students a place to feel safe and be themselves.
However, some students at CSUN disagree and think have ethnic themed housing in the dorms is a form of segregation. CSUN has clubs and organizations that are geared towards cultural inclusion and some students said there is no need for themed housing because of this.
Valley View News Reporter Dana Lites has more on the possible implementation of ethnic housing.
