Campus Housing faces major changes on both sides of B’way

Columbia’s ever-evolving residential system changed drastically this year. In light of a dearth of dormitory space and flaws in the housing-selection process, students had a first taste of these changes as they lined up in John Jay Lounge and in Barnard’s James Room to make their housing selections under revamped systems in early April. These changes will continue to be felt as students move into newly furnished buildings—with even one entirely new residence hall—next fall.
