Why not just build regular apartments that students or anyone else can rent? This makes no sense to me in a City that keeps talking about the lack of housing. I lived in apartments over my life and they were never designated as student housing, just regular old apartments where old, young, students, and families all lived together... The current student housing complexes are constantly advertising their apartments on the UO campus so that tells me they aren't at full capacity, why build more without having them available to anyone?
