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.

Share:
In the post, Summer Conferences on Campus: More than Extra Dollars, we explored the value proposition of summer conferences and what it brings to campus in addition to revenue. Understanding the full value proposition of summer conferences is important because it create the imperative of what we need to do next, which is focus on recovery.
Over the last 18 months, we’ve been focused on responding to the immediate impact of the pandemic on our campuses. If we’re going to successfully come out of the pandemic, we have to move from response to recovery. Recovery requires that we create a thoughtful plan and start working on executing that plan over the next 12 months.
Recovery isn’t about returning to how things were before the pandemic. It’s an opportunity to build and improve your operations so they are resilient and ready for the future. Summer conferences run on a 12 month cycle. If you don’t start preparing for recovery now, it will be too late.
