Sign of the Times

California law now requires that one-person restrooms with locking doors be all-gender. See: https://www.mrllp.com/blog-transgender-bathroom-laws-in-california-what-employers-lara-shortz. However, there is also an official boycott - that explicitly includes UC - regarding use of funds for travel to states which are listed by the state attorney general as having laws fostering "discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people." See:

The sign above, recently noticed by yours truly, seems to be part of this issue, although it is posted on a restroom that is for more than one person and isn't locked. Oddly, not all single-gender restrooms in the building have this sign. Notably, the large men's restroom on the first floor of the same building where there are classrooms - and thus heavy usage - did not have such a sign (as of yesterday afternoon).
