This is what makes this whole situation scary.

I am not so sure about that. If you divide our housing bill up over 9 months in the SAE house at SMU, we pay about 800 a month, not including meal plan. I wish we could own our own property, but as it is the school owns 51% and we own 49%, which means it is technically theirs. Police can come & go as they please, etc. etc. However, the school does take care of all the maintenance.
