The spokesperson encouraged educational institutions to “voluntarily comply” with the requirements. But “there are no laws, ordinances, or regulations that require guardrails on university dorm bunk or loft beds,” according to Larry Christenson, the executive director of university housing at Georgia College and State University. Despite 30 years of working in university housing, he hadn’t heard of bed rails until he heard about Jacobs’s organization a few years ago. He says most people don’t have a lot of knowledge about the subject and that this is in part because statistics aren’t reported to a central location and personal injury lawsuits involving bunk bed falls don’t typically garner much attention. For Christenson, the need for change is rooted in “common sense.” It’s because of these experiences that I’m going to fight harder and advocate more forcefully than anyone else. I’ve seen enough racial, gender, and cultural adversities for a lifetime; I’m done listening to a President and a society who believe my gender, religion, age, and cultural identity mean I am lesser. America is young and diverse. It’s time for millennials to be heard. “And that made me really sad because there’s this whole club of us who have been through something like this, and we’re all here for each other, but we shouldn’t have to be,” Mollie said. OH EM GEE thank you so much! My babe Lauren Lillien did my makeup for the video and she's a makeup genius. She was so collaborative and creative but definitely has her own style that she imprinted into the look. I think when I finally came out of the closet in 2012 is when I started using fashion and beauty as a way to express myself. I went through lots of different phases over the years but my love for anything sparkly and glittery has pretty much always remained. I think what we wear can be such a great tool for self-expression and self-discovery. I honestly didn't know certain things about myself until I put highlighter on for the first time or wore my first pair of heels. I'm a really creative person and I find fashion and beauty to be another extension of my creativity so the fact that I get to make myself happy wearing fun things while also sending across such an important message about breaking down gender norms and stereotypes is so humbling and special to me.TV
