KTalks-Uncovering the housing crisis

Wel­come to Ktalks, the pod­cast where we dive into the most press­ing issues impact­ing the UConn community—students, fac­ul­ty, and beyond. I’m your host, Kausshik, and in today’s episode, we’re tack­ling a top­ic that’s been top of mind for many stu­dents: the ongo­ing hous­ing short­age at UConn.

As enroll­ment num­bers steadi­ly rise, the demand for on-cam­pus hous­ing has become more intense, leav­ing many stu­dents scram­bling for a place to live. But what’s real­ly caus­ing this short­age, and what steps is the uni­ver­si­ty tak­ing to address it?

To help us under­stand the sit­u­a­tion, we’re joined by Will Hodges, a sec­ond-year sopho­more who has been close­ly involved with UCon­n’s hous­ing ser­vices. Will, thank you so much for being here—it’s great to have you on!

We’ll dive into all the details, from the cur­rent state of hous­ing to what can be done mov­ing for­ward, so stay tuned!
