Traditional Universities in Power Conferences

Those were mentioned in the first link, Law.

Dude.

Your website is BOGUS.

There are probably at least a DOZEN residential schools in Ohio, NOT TWO!!!

Next time, use better sources and do a little more research.

Chris, when was the last time you visited campus and drove down Scott st?

Dude, did you read my response about mount Union? Your mount Union 100% discredited your point. Read it and chime in.
P-S:
Stop using ucla as an example. Can we agree on that?

That same website also claims that there are NO public schools in Ohio that require campus residency.

That’s also a LIE.

Living at Miami | Campus Services Center - Miami University.

Quote: Miami requires first and second year students to live on campus

Your website is WRONG Bro.

It said only two privates and no publics in Ohio require students to live on campus.

That’s 100% FALSE. There are MANY Ohio schools that have an on campus living requirement.

Sometimes you need to simply accept correction.

lol look who’s talking.

I accept correction more often than he does.

As for your post, I don’t mind the four year BSN being off campus, because that’s a very small program.

Moving Technology to Sugar Land, by contrast, created thousands of “super commuters” with no connection to campus.

I am aware,however you said I didn’t include those when I clearly did. Now I know thet are still building out at Sugarland so what I found is likely to change with the building being opem.

I wasn’t arguing a pro or con, my post was really disecting just what the student groups are that are being “piumprf out” of the campuses mentioned by bottoms.

Ohio U does as well.

Quote: All enrolled students under the age of 23 with fewer than four academic year semesters (fall/spring semesters only) in the residence halls prior to the start of the semester in which they enroll must reside in university-owned housing and participate in the associated mandatory meal plan

Your original post mentioned undergrad programs at Sugar Land but didn’t specifically mention Technology’s almost wholesale move there.

Dude, bro, ucla x every posting on the subject?
This bro, dude deserves another:

My post wasn’t wrong. I just didn’t go into detail about that aspect. I was pointing out which were exclusive to the campus which in the first link of my research is where I got it from. It clearly listed the programs you said I didn’t include.

So called traditional universities have a campus/or/and neighborhood that is catered for students to stay on campus or live close to campus. Until U of H. the third ward neighborhood and the City of Houston “tackle” find a solution this reality will exist. The third ward was alive/vibrant during segregation. When segregation was finally lifted tons of residents moved to the suburbs. The third ward has never recovered.

Like I said we have downtown etc within the rail route for students to have options for now. Plenty of bars downtown and it’s why rail from there to UH is a great thing.

Tcu prob has bars but don’t many students go to the ft worth stock yards for fun which would be like our downtown. Many from outside prob choose UH for the stuff the city has to offer as a whole vs just what’s on campus. We at least have a city with lots to do for them if they want.

I am with you TOP25 and all for it
but traditional universities like ucla have these amenities on their foot steps or walking distance. When we built TDECU there was a great opportunity to develop an hotel and other students friendly amenities. It takes real estate investors and city officials to make this happen.

Houston lacks the CS opportunities in the city.

UT and to a lesser extent &&M but still feasible, have relationships with CS opportunities outside of Texas.

As I understand it (and as someone who lives there) Downtown isn’t really much of a party spot, especially for the youths. East Downtown has a bit of a yuppie bar scene, but in my experience that’s more for late 20s, early 30s folks. If you’re looking for where UH kids hang out on a Saturday night, you’re probably going to Midtown or Montrose.

Maybe a rail line from UH to Montrose is the answer.

U of H development or making it a traditional university and making it “the place to be” for students is at the core of this discussion. One does not go without the other.

News flash:
Why do you think U of H became a commuter school?
What was done/is being done to change that?

Disclaimer:
I see no issue whatsoever that students commute. Yes and yes it would be awesome for the area to be revitalized.
