  • Directions: This is on the first floor of Kell Hall, near the Peachtree Center Ave entrance, just before the elevators. ------- As of July 2011, if you enter the building from the Peachtree Center Ave entrance, there will be a large open space eventually connecting to Sparks Hall in front of you; a very large sign for and small hallway to the Cooperative Learning Lab to your right; and a short hallway leading to the elevators to your left. ------- Turn left and walk a few yards - there will be a small alcove with a women's restroom and this single-occupancy, accessible, non-gender-specific bathroom.

    Comments: __Locking the door:__ It may not be immediately clear, but the door to this bathroom *does* lock. It does not have a physical latch, but in the corner across from the toilet (diagonal from the sink) there are two buttons at about three feet above the floor. One locks the door and the other unlocks and automatically opens the door. ------- __Accessibility button by the door:__ This button to automatically open the door does not work. The buttons in the corner described above function fine. ------- __Hours:__ GSU is open late - especially this building, which tends to host a lot of astronomy labs. This building will probably be locked very late at night and very early in the morning, and may have somewhat more limited hours during the summer. ------- __More info about this building:__ The official university webpage for Kell Hall is at http://www.gsu.edu/site2005/29529.html or tinyurl.com/gsukell . ------- __User-Safety:__ Our school is very racially diverse, so campus security is not likely to harass users of this bathroom who are not GSU students *solely* on the basis of their ethnicity, but the police at GSU and in downtown Atlanta in general have been 'cracking down on homelessness' (i.e., perpetuating racism and classism like it'll fix the economic and structural problems in the city), so you may get flack or worse if you 'look' very poor, especially if you are older than traditional college student age and not white.
