They keep talking about tearing down the towers, but they are still there. I never lived in the towers(I was Mahoney/Pearson both years I lived on campus) , but I did spend a ton of time in the towers(Gotta go where the talent is). What stinks is that living on campus is becoming extremely expensive. I can't imagine the middle class scholarship kids(Like I was) being able to justify spending that kind of money to live on campus, beyond that first year, when you are required(Unless you are a local). I looked at some of the rates, it's insane.The towers will soon be gone but the shower flies will live forever

Pearson for me.They keep talking about tearing down the towers, but they are still there.

It's probably worse. I lucked out and had a landlord that treated her properties as a public service and not as a way to make money(She was loaded anyway). Back in 2006, I was able to rent out a room in a 3/2 house right off of Granada for 550 per month(by the time I finished my masters and law school in 2015, she had increased the rent to a whopping 640 per month). Now, that room goes for almost 1100 per month. I could only imagine what some of the other more profit driven landlords are charging.Try living off campus these days.
I'm still amazed that I was able to turn in my housing deposit late and still get my first choice. All my first year friends was stuck living in the towers, I was living in relative luxury in 711 Pearson!*Pearson for me.
Anybody that ever took a shower in the towers has a lifetime natural immunity to da Rona, Ebola, Mad Cow Disease, Sickle Cell Anemia, Hep B & Prostate Cancer. If you took a shower in the towers AND ever wore flip flops to bathroom in The Tavern then you can basically eat asbestos soaked in AIDS blood and you wouldn't even get the sniffles.The towers will soon be gone but the shower flies will live forever
I was a scholarship kid, too, but lived off campus. I would have spent a ton more time on this campus than the one 20 years ago. ****, even when I returned for Grad school a few years later.
