Southern Medical University (SMU) has begun phasing out its mixed-gender dorm policy despite opposition from more than 80 percent of surveyed students, Yangcheng Evening News reports. 据《羊城晚报》报道，南方医科大学开始逐步淘汰男女混合宿舍政策，尽管在接受调查的学生中有八成以上反对。 The university in Guangzhou was the only in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong to adopt the policy allowing male and female students to live on the same floors. 位于广州市的南方医科大学，是广东省唯一一所允许男女生住进同一楼层的大学。 In most Chinese universities, male and female students live in separate buildings, or on separate floors of the same building, and visits to areas occupied by the opposite sex are strictly controlled. 在国内的很多大学，男女生都是分开在不同的宿舍楼或者同一宿舍楼在不同的楼层居住，而且进入异性宿舍楼是有严格的规定的。 SMU, which was founded in October 1951, highlighted a liberal residence policy in their student recruitment drive, portraying it as a symbol of freedom, openness and equality. 南方医科大学建于1951年10月，其开放的男女生混宿政策甚至成为该校每年招生季的噱头，以此突出学校自由、开放和平等的原则。 |
