Full Text: Arizona State University freshmen who apply for student housing are being urged to live
on the specific campus that houses the college of their major studies.
This means, for example, that journalism students are being asked to live at Taylor Place, the
dormitory being built near the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Both
the dorm and the college will open this fall in downtown Phoenix. ’What I am encouraging all students
and all parents to do is to think about living downtown, whether that’s Taylor Place or an apartment
near the downtown campus,’ said Christopher Callahan, dean of the Cronkite School. ’We’re
encouraging everyone to think about that option.’ Freshmen entering the College of Nursing, the
College of Public Programs and the School of Letters and Sciences at the downtown campus this fall
also will make their homes at Taylor Place, he said.
