that fact that most other groups
were either having their budg

was passed to reconsider the
budget at a later date after !(

The University has been re
Indent to provide information
on how its housing develop
ment compares with other Fau

"How do we know (without
information) that we are not
in the low end of the totem
pole?" Bartlett said, referring
to other Pac-10 institutions’
housing plans.
But Dan Williams. University
vice president for administra
tion, said he is surprised at
Bartlett's comments because
the l'niv«?rsit%• has "responded
to every single question" Dwy
er has asked
Marjory Rainey. University
Housing director, does not op
pose the bill, but believes the
comparison of institutions is
like comparing "apples and or
anges " She said it is not an ac
curate way to assess how effec
tively universities meet stu
dents’ needs
Out of the approximately
18.000 University students,
about 21 percent live in Univer
sity housing, with 17 percent
residing in residence halls and
4 percent living in family hous

Ramey said colleges in small
t'r towns will naturally provide
mom housing than institutions
in larger towns, which have
larger private sec tors to supply
housing
