<p>I understand that freshmen housing, for the most part, is subpar. And I think my D will eventually come to terms with being in a triple and make the best of it. After all, she’s hardly the only one in this situation. But what irks me is the ridiculous amount of money I’m paying them to squeeze her into a room that is barely big enough for even 2 people. I think the “discount” they offer is a joke. </p>
