Graduate and Professional Student Housing Working Group

The Graduate and Professional Student Housing Working Group was appointed in the summer of 2016 as an initial step to develop housing options for graduate and professional students that extend learning and collaboration beyond the classroom and laboratory.  With the assistance of the external consultant, Demographic Perspectives, LLC, the group visited peer institutions, held multiple working sessions, led student focus group meetings, and conducted a comprehensive survey of graduate and professional students. To read more about efforts currently underway, as well as an updated executive committee and advisory committee list, please visit the graduate and professional student housing progress page.
