We decided against making the push for on-campus housing because it required just too much commitment -- and being that our numbers fluctuate every year, we knew we couldn't pull it off. Looking back, I'm glad we didn't because two years ago, hundreds of UHM students didn't have on-campus rooms. They had to be put up in Waikiki hotels.

This happens at U of Miami too - some students wind up living at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables. A former employee of mine was President fot he Student Government and lived there for a semester. We went to run a conference there years later and he showed me the room he used to live in - and he didn't even have to have a roommate! (UM owns part of hotel). Of course he had no golf course view but he did get maid service every day!
