Policy reversal grants juniors housing

Tilman Dette / The Dartmouth Staff All members of the Class of 2009 are now eligible for on-campus housing next year, reversing a February announcement that 100 additional members of the Class of 2009 may have to live off campus their senior year, Dean of Residential Life Martin Redman said in an e-mail sent to all undergraduate students Friday evening. Fifth-year engineering students and "active older" students are still not eligible for room draw, the e-mail said. The increased student housing is due to space made available in Brewster Hall and the Lodge, which were scheduled to be torn down next year to be replaced by a new visual arts center. "The Visual Arts Center project, while still moving forward, would not require the loss of Brewster Hall or the Lodge for the 2008-2009 academic year," Redman wrote in the e-mail. Greek organizations and affinity houses did "stellar work...filling their locations" to alleviate the housing crunch, and the "high number" of East Wheelock applicants will allow more members of the Class of 2009 to participate in room draw for housing next year.
