This is a reply to the letter “MSU’s Women’s Lounge a relic of past discrimination” (SN 12/3).
Thirty years ago as an undergraduate at MSU, I valued the Women’s Lounge as the quietest place in the Union. It was a place where I could do some serious work on a paper or even catch a much-needed nap.
Today, I still appreciate its tranquillity, and I think many others feel the same. Why not remove the gender label and call it a “quiet lounge” similar to the quiet study areas in the library?
