Contra the implications of the previous article I linked, NYU says they will not allow themed dorms to discriminate on the basis of race. My apologies.\
\
\"\"Earlier in the summer, a group of Black students reached out to NYU\'s Office of Housing and Residential Life and applied to establish an Exploration Floor around the themes of Black history and culture; NYU has about 30 themed Exploration Floors,\" he said. \"During the course of the discussion about the application process---which is ongoing---the Housing Office staff made clear that all Exploration Floors must be open to applicants of all races and backgrounds.\"\
