Bisant: Living in the dorms should not be required

Hayley Bisant, Collegian Columnist September 11, 2024
Having a first-year roommate is an infamous part of the college experience. I heard a story from almost every adult in my life about who they got saddled with the summer before I left to attend Colorado State University.

And they may not be wrong.
