My daughter has a housing scholarship. She has senior status. She picked the largest room in a unit at The Highlands as soon as housing selection opened up this past spring.

She has just been informed that a freshman has been added to her room, supposedly temporarily, but still the possibility it could be a year-long thing.

The two others who joined her room are freshman, and now the third freshman has been added.

I talked to Alicia Browne in Housing, and they will do nothing, not even switch her to one of the smaller rooms in her unit and allow two freshmen to share the larger room.

I’ve just made a call to the National Alumni Association, since they awarded her Crimson Scholarship, to see if they can help us in any way.

If she’d known in the spring there was a possibility of another person being added to this slightly larger room, she’d have picked one of the smaller rooms to be assured a room to herself.
