<p>Last time this happened was in Fall 2006–and I think the last time before that was Fall 1999. (3 times in 9 years–like the paper said).</p>
<p>It’s a real hassle for the students–so I wouldn’t be surprised if the school agrees to let many of these students room off-site if they request it (even though the “rules” say all freshman are to be housed on-campus).</p>
<p>Well, I won’t tell you what decade it was, but it also happened a couple of years when I was a student. (Another time of record enrollments.) It’s probably not in the records anymore as it’s history ;)</p>
