 There was a type of body that went into the locker rooms and that body was not mine. When Ben Perez was a student here, it was easier for him to go home after a workout. Though the RSF had adaptive sports equipment, as a disabled student, he says the locker room wasn't for him. The campus is constantly striving to make it self and more accessible in all of its services, programs and activities. After three years of planning, UC Berkeley unveiled the first ever universal locker room in the UC system. The $2.7 million facility provides a private space for students who are non-binary, transgender or need disability accommodations. The new space occupies portions of the old female and male locker rooms. This 4,500 square foot universal locker room features 400 lockers, 16 individual changing rooms and private toilets. Community members expressed their excitement for this space which is believed to be the first of its kind. I think it's going to make more people want to really come in state. Cal graduate William Murrow said that he hopes students feel that it is a place accessible and open to them. RecSport senior associate director Trinece Durst told CalTV that it's a place that offers privacy and is for everyone. The universal locker room is open to students and gym members today.
