Okay people here are some issues I have found around campus both in living on campus for 2 years, and a year living off campus....it could be more, but who wants to think about it that much?
1. I know we have lots of Honor code meetings, but I wonder if anyone remembers that visiting hours and rules apply to off campus not just on campus housing? Do you think the hours are fair on those that are living off campus?
2. Pedestrians, I know at one point or another we are all one....but how are we NOT supposed to hit them if they don't obey the cross walk laws? Whose fault is it really?
3. Why is there such a mad dash to get into off campus housing, when at most colleges people stay in dorms all four years they are in college?
4. For those of you that have experienced the application process for financial aid and scholarships, you might know the stresses of waiting for that check to get here in order to pay for tuition...How can we get the University to help get our money here a little bit faster to avoid the panic of deadlines, and the need for books?
5. How is it that professors in completely different departments still find a way to plan there tests in the exact same week as all of your other classes?

I agree with the financial aid statement. I hope that they realize that some of us depend on this money to pay for our tution and additional materials.
ReplyDeletemad dash for cheaper rent. i save at least $100 off campus compared to what i spent in the dorms. that's why i wanted out
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kendrick, first come first serve. You have to be speedy if you're going to get what you want.
ReplyDeleteWhether living on campus or off, a BYU student is a BYU student and the same rules apply to both realms. Living off campus possibly gives the opportunity to be more accountable to ourselves than, say, a Resident Assistant. But there are also roommates who can possibly encourage keeping the honor code.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is. Do you think at other colleges they keep the dorm rate cheaper to keep people there? I mean, why else would anyone want to stay in the dorms for that long?
