Residence hall rate increase is a necessary evil
[news] As residence hall rates stand, the annual amount paid is not much less than a neighboring apartment would cost. Living on campus is no bargain. However, as more students flood in to the University of Arizona, the prospect of having a home-away-from-home with no utilities cost and proximity to campus appears attractive to thousands.    [More]
