What is coed housing? Does it mean that people of the opposite gender reside in the same room? or same gender?

Question

I read in Rice University in Texas there is Coed Housing. So I wanted to know exactly what it meant.

Answer 1

Coed housing simply means that in a dorm there will be both males and females sharing the dorm. They will not however be sharing rooms. A male would not be rooming with a female. But a male might be next door to a female.

Answer 2

Same dorm or same floor for both guys/girls.  No, they aren't going to pair you up in a room with someone of the opposite s*x.
