Housing Crisis Grows At University

San Francisco State University faces a housing crisis as students struggle to find a place to live.
"Dozens of students are said to have withdrawn from programs at the university, telling officials that affordable housing is too hard to find.

More than 650 students were forced to evacuate the building and were left scrambling for dwelling alternatives. "
