[quote=Anonymous]I think four years of campus housing is great (and appropriate) at SLACs, where part of the value proposition is a tighter-knit community. My kid is at Wesleyan, which has a progressive independence approach, with students living in dorms first and second year, apartments third year, and houses fourth year. All housing is university-owned, but the apartments and houses are basically like the ones I rented off-campus when I attended a bigger school. At bigger schools, it’s nice if they offer housing for three or four years as an option, but living off-campus in the upper class years is the norm, so I wouldn’t expect or demand that my kid living in campus housing any longer than they wanted to.[/quote]
