The Student Housing Matters blog explores ideas with leaders in higher education and the student housing profession. This is the place to find stories from those who have worked in the field for many years, podcast interviews, and videos about relevant topics in the student housing world.

It’s about matters relating to on-campus student housing, as well as why quality on-campus student housing really matters. We want this blog to serve as a forum for sharing ideas and insights about how your on-campus student housing can do things beyond simply housing students. How it can be used as a more powerful tool to recruit and retain students on your campus. We look forward to you joining us in the conversation.

Perspectives on Strong Campus Housing Partnerships From Both Sides of the Table

In the most recent copy of the NACAS College Services magazine, we did an article highlighting differing perspectives on public-private partnerships for on-campus student housing. It’s a panel discussion where we assembled four student housing professionals, all of whom have worked for COCM and a university, to interview them about their experiences with campus housing partnerships. The four people we have participating in the panel are:

Patrick Savolskis – Executive Director, Purchase College Association

Jeremy Biddy – Vice President of Operations, COCM

Mecca Marsh – Director of Spartan Suites at Norfolk State University, COCM

Gray Bekurs – Director of Real Estate, University of Louisiana Lafayette
