As it states they are trying to get a bill passed to help pay for these things. There have been quite a few hazardous fires at fraternity houses here. The problem is a lot of them are "unofficial" houses that are not sanctioned by the campus in any way, and those are the places that really would benefit from the sprinkler laws.

I agree that ALL landlords who house students should have sprinklers or some sort of fire alarm that can't be dismantled. A lot of the places are firetraps and the slumlords are too greedy to fix them, as long as they can get people to live there.
