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.

據(jù)《羊城晚報》報道，南方醫(yī)科大學(xué)開始逐步淘汰男女混合宿舍政策，盡管在接受調(diào)查的學(xué)生中有八成以上反對。

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.

位于廣州市的南方醫(yī)科大學(xué)，是廣東省唯一一所允許男女生住進(jìn)同一樓層的大學(xué)。

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.

在國內(nèi)的很多大學(xué)，男女生都是分開在不同的宿舍樓或者同一宿舍樓在不同的樓層居住，而且進(jìn)入異性宿舍樓是有嚴(yán)格的規(guī)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.

南方醫(yī)科大學(xué)建于1951年10月，其開放的男女生混宿政策甚至成為該校每年招生季的噱頭，以此突出學(xué)校自由、開放和平等的原則。

In regards to the policy change, the university said "male and female students have different lifestyles. To prevent noise made by male students playing games late into the night from disturbing female students, and also to make it easier for skimpily-clad female students to dare to open their doors for fresh air during summer, the decision to abolish the mixed gender dorm policy has been made."

針對此次政策的調(diào)整，校方解釋道：“男女學(xué)生在生活方式上有一定的差異，為了避免男同學(xué)深夜玩游戲傳來的喧鬧影響到女同學(xué)的作息，也為了方便女同學(xué)在夏天衣著清涼時仍敢開門通風(fēng)，故而作出取消男女混宿的決定”。

SMU did not terminate the policy immediately, but the percentage of students living in mixed-gender dorms had dropped from what it was previously, according to the report.

根據(jù)該報道，雖然南方醫(yī)科大學(xué)并沒有立即取消該制度，但是先前在混合宿舍居住的部分學(xué)生已經(jīng)搬了出來。

A student's mother supported the university's decision, saying students were still relatively young and that they may not be able to handle the potential consequences.

一位學(xué)生的母親很支持校方的決定，并表示學(xué)生們?nèi)韵鄬δ贻p，他們很難能夠承受潛在的后果。

However, in on online survey organized by students, 82 percent of 6,693 participants called for the mixed-gender dorms to remain.

然而，在一項由學(xué)生組織的在線調(diào)查中，接受調(diào)查的6693名學(xué)生中有82%的人呼吁保留混宿制度。

Wang, a student at the university's nursing school, said many high school students were curious about having a mixed-gender dorm, but "it's really nothing special after you get used to it."

該校護理學(xué)院的一位姓王的學(xué)生表示，許多大學(xué)生都對擁有一個混合宿舍充滿好奇，但習(xí)慣之后真的沒什么特別的。
