EDITORIAL – This last weekend over 1000 college students moved into Fresno State’s Student Housing. Furniture, refrigerators and boxes were trucked into the dorm area and many students began their first adventures away from their family homes. One of those students was my oldest daughter.
At Fresno State, dorm life comes in many different configurations. While around 600 students will live in the traditional dorms with communal restrooms, 400 or so students will experience dorm life in one, two or three-bedroom suite-style dorms with up to six other students. In my daughter’s suite, she shares a two-bedroom suite with five other girls who came to Fresno from all over the state.
