Synopsis

In this episode of the Tufts Daily Podcast, we focus on the university’s attempts to solve the lack of available on-campus housing by converting campus-owned properties into dorms. We first speak with TCU President Benya Kraus and Policy Chair Jamie Neikrie about the most recent of these projects, the Junior Senior Wood-Framed Residences in Medford. After, we talk to Shane Woolley, co-founder of the Tufts Housing League, about the group’s concerns about the project, as well as alternative approaches to making on-campus housing more available to students. Robert Katz and Arman Smigielski as Co-Hosts
