Hey Trent students, we are third year social work students, and our goal is to create a more welcoming environment at the Trent Athletics Centre. We are trying to either create a space for females only, or create select hours for females only, to allow females to work out comfortably. Multiple other universities in Ontario already have similar regulations that have been implemented. By signing this petition, you would be giving your support, and consent to Professor Susan Hillock and various other faculty members viewing the information you have provided.
If anyone has questions, email me at [email protected]

The momentum behind this initiative demonstrates that a diverse student body truly values inclusive fitness spaces. This level of engagement confirms that our proposal addresses a legitimate need within the campus community.

yes pls. i hate walking past the weight room when all the guys are staring.
i stop going to the gym at trent because i feel so intimidated by everyone in the free weight section. this would fix so much.
YES!! finally. it gets super awkward in there sometimes.
Great idea. Hope the school actually listens this time.
I talked about this with my friend and thought you may be interested in the idea but you could have the gym set up so for a few hours it’s girls and then few hours it’s guys then few hours it’s co-ed
I support this.
I am in support of female only hours at the gym.

This would be so helpful. Sometimes I just want to lift without feeling like I'm on display.
