Here are some of the results based on a small number of responses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you were governor of California or President of the US, what’s one thing you could do to help college students who are housing insecure?

  • Make housing affordable around campus specifically for college students.
  • Facilitate secure year -round housing and free or reduced price meals
  • Provide dormitories for those of us who are trying to finish school but have lost their job due to the pandemic and want to stay in school to help us stay local
  • More financial aid opportunities
  • I would create a housing relief program that students can apply to that will provide funds to help them pay for rent while they’re in school.
  • Provide free housing so they won’t stress about paying bills while going to college. Many drop out or take time off college due to paying bills
  • Grant Money (funds) or lower tuition
