More On-Campus Housing in the Pipeline

August 30th, 2007  |  by David Daddio  |  Published in Commons 7 and 8, Housing  |  1 Comment

With On-Campus waitlists surging past 1500, modified triples and lounges once again becoming common practice, and the memory of hundreds of rising seniors kicked out of housing last semester, the University is pursuing a 2 building, 400 bed public private partnership in the vicinity of Mowatt Lane Garage. While these buildings will do little to alleviate the real long term demand for student housing (we estimate 5,000 to 7,000 beds), it is definitely a step in the right direction. We’ve cleverly named them “commons 7 and 8″ on our map.

ETA: Fall 2009/Spring 2010.
