Campus Housings Beliefs

My first thoughts on the ROC were those of slight confusion. Since move in day I had thought the only reason we as a student body were supposed to live in the dorms was simply to keep the university housing system afloat. However, after reading the “ROC” and the platform which it made, in the statement regarding campus housings beliefs that, Campus living will enhance our growth and development as a student at UW stout.
