Few Issues for WVU Housing

Even with continued growth in enrollment, West Virginia University has plenty of room to house students flocking to Morgantown, WVU Housing Director Corey Farris said.

A week after students moved in, Farris said there were no major problems at dorms and student housing.  In the past, WVU has had to put students in hotels as housing issues were ironed out.

This year, no students went to hotels and only about 20 saw delayed move ins, Farris said.

"We put them in temporary housing for about two days until we identified permanent housing for them," Farris said.

At this point, WVU does not need any additional housing for students, he said. 

"Were good where we are right now," Farris said.  "We constantly evaluate."

Farris says officials had some concerns earlier this summer, but that the school should be OK for a while.  He said there is continued interest in living on campus from upperclassmen.
