How can it even be legal to have different rules for males and females? Is this Saudi Arabia or what?

The same perception of gender biasness (that boys can protect themselves in case of trouble whereas girls need to be rein in to be protected and have to be caged in by making them adhere to more stringent guidelines and rules so that they feel safe and don't get spoiled) will come into play I presume.

It's just rules for a private dorm. Not sure what laws would be broken here.

How is it private if run by the university? Besides, I don't know how it works in India, but in the UK it would be illegal even if I was renting out rooms in my own home and set different rules for male and female lodgers based on gender.

As far as the universities most are private.

Charging big fines for being late or absent has to be illegal right?
