| Get campus out of married housing business - too much space is used that should be for academic needs. |
| Get out of the married student housing business/replace campus housing. |
| Eliminate on campus and grad housing in favor of space and private enterprise - and expanse. |
| Reserving space for future student/graduate housing, also retirement housing. |
| Put all dorms together - not spread on the campus foot print. |
| Be very cautious in working with a developer for housing. |
| Is it really MSU's responsibility to provide housing? This would be easy to push to the private sector. In any case, it should be high density. |
| Married student housing needs to be replaced. |
| More faculty housing and retirement housing in the future (good income generator for Campus). Age of students is going up. |
| Do Students want to stay on Campus? Dorms may not be the solution. Apartments or "house-style" more favorable. |
| MSU should be the "Landlord" of the housing - beware of private developers - may tend to over build and we'll be stuck with more houses than we can use. |
| Students view dorms as a negative due to rules. |
| Develop west of Nineteenth with arts and residences. |
| Move housing to other side of Nineteenth. |
| Remove small white houses. |
| Build more single/graduate student housing - big demand. |
| Ever notice how hideous the dorms are? Since everyone has to live there the first year, it hurts the campus image to have buildings that incoming students wouldn't want to live in. Worst of all, the "New Buildings" are indistinguishable from the terrible nouveau- west subdivisions. |
| The 1940's pill-box houses should be consolidated into more efficient condo-style family housing and another set of twin apartment houses for single graduate students. |
| Future undergraduate dorms should be built with larger rooms than is seen in Roskie/Hedges Complex. Langford should be the standard for double occupancy rooms (in terms of square footage). The New Residence Buildings should be the standard for single occupancy dorm rooms. |
| Put high rise residence halls in football practice fields by fieldhouse. This should be the focal point for Campus expansion. This also puts the SUB a the center of Campus. It would be expensive to create a separate campus west of 19th. |
| Get rid of the shanty houses on the west side of campus. Replace with apartments. |
| Move family/married student housing to the other side of Nineteenth and take the area currently occupied by the "little houses" off of College and turn it into a building for Art or AG or even dorms. |
| Move family/graduate housing across Nineteenth. Use existing family/graduate housing for new development. |
| Have more apartment-style affordable (competitive with Bozeman market) living on Campus within CLOSE walking distance. |
| More apartment/suite style living in small groups would be nice. Use the Quads as an example, only nicer facilities recommended. |
| Take out old student housing and replace with duplex/condos for students who would like to live on Campus, but not live in a "walk-in closet" aka North Hedges!! |
| Suite-style housing is the wave of the future. Students don't want to live in halls made in the '60's - They expect more, so do their parents. |
| On-Campus Living: Phase out single family (low density) housing in family and graduate areas to allow for more living i.e. condos and duplex units. |
| Allow non-married couples/friends to live together in the family housing. Very old fashioned like it is today. |
| On campus living is an area that needs some improvement. Move graduate student housing. A place for sophomores, juniors and seniors to live that is also affordable |
| Dorms seem very far away from actual center of student learning. Equals - lazy freshmen don't go to class. |
| On-Campus Living: Students need this experience. |
| Build more student apt housing where WWII housing exists. New housing has appeal to students if build like new housing behind Hedges. |
| Increase college housing density. Nice housing & not just for married or graduate students. |
| New Housing: New dorms where single family houses are now - keep parking close - but give a cost break for parking farther out vs. next to the dorms. |
| Where do you intend to move displaced married student housing/ West of Nineteenth? Bungalows are deteriorating. Auxiliary Services needs to look at replacing these…higher density housing could use approximately 1/3 of the current space being used. |
| Get out of the housing business at MSU. Market price is the same as what MSU charges. |
| Get out of student housing business. Leave it to the private sector. |
| Should develop some partnership growth activities to provide affordable housing for students and faculty, as well as safe transit lanes for pedestrians and bicyclists. |
| Keep replacing married student housing. Add visiting faculty housing and retired student (is there such a thing?) housing. |
| Need to make housing which is appealing to students. "Apartment living," new urbanism design, places for dialogue, open space, high density. |
| Keep student housing. It is the only affordable option for many families. |
| Make dormitories more attractive to students so that they'll stay there and be reasonably happy. |
| Keep family and graduate housing!!! |
| Workforce housing with coordinated means to reach campus. |
| Get away from dormitory style housing. Use mixed use, condo style houses that incorporate yards, family recreation areas, and a greater independent life-style. Ex: 3rd floor apartments above parking structures that also incorporate store front. |
| Improvement of barracks and married student housing. Could be a great neighborhood. |
| Please do some decoration and landscaping to the "little" houses. |
| Students are forced out of Bozeman, due to the high local rents. Therefore, most of them MUST drive. Lots of resources being used as well as lots of space just for parking |
| Keep family housing. Many people need that interim step. |
| Large waiting lists for family and graduate housing and post-doc/faculty. |
| Students don't like dorms - viewed as being warehoused. |
| Replace Bungalows with higher density apartments. |
| More than 5 unrelated people within a dwelling is the largest City Code violation. Caused by students trying to lower high rental costs. Also causes a parking problem in town. |
| Residence hall parking close to the hall. |
| High rise dorms do not give a sense of community that the smaller dorms provide. |
