This year‚ the demand by freshmen who want to continue living on campus is double the supply at the now year-old complex‚ said Housing Director Preston

Imagine what would happen if that student or instructor were having a bad day or had a major disagreement with someone. The possibility that something disastrous could happen is quite real.

the last three weeks I observed the difference between how students live on campus and how students live off campus. The reason behind my decision to observe this was because I was curious to see the pros and cons of both ways of living. However‚ the last two years I was living on campus so instead of studying my way of living on campus I studied my five roommates and how they function daily. For one week I lived off campus with some friends and observed how they function and perform tasks on a daily
