[quote=Anonymous]Many publics ~ and I happened to run into this particularly in the South, do not have what I would consider, enough on-campus housing. I don't think they place enough emphasis on providing students with a good residential life experience ~ ie air conditioning!! At JMU & VT (not sure about UVA/WM) many Freshmen are faced with finding housing for Sophomore year just weeks after they've started at the school. Mid-western publics (UWisconsin, Michigan State, etc) have a long history of valuing residential life. UConn has on-campus housing for all undergraduates who want it. UFlorida suggests Freshmen apply for housing prior to even knowing if a student has been accepted - not enough housing for Freshmen. Some southern publics have excellent housing for some (honors college) UAlabama, USouth Carolina, but it's not equitable. Public schools vary a lot. I do not think Va, generally, does a good job in this area.[/quote]
