Home sweet home<br />

For many students, oncampus<br />
living is more<br />
than a way to get to<br />
class quicker—it's<br />
quite simply home.<br />
Whether it's finding a three-foot-long iguana in a student<br />
apartment, staging hot tub parties on the ro<strong>of</strong>, or following<br />
people’s lives through romances, engagements and<br />
weddings, residents <strong>of</strong> the student residences on the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Regina</strong> campus have just about seen it all.<br />
Luther College, College West and La Résidence each has its<br />
own characteristics and distinctive history written from the<br />
memories <strong>of</strong> the people who call the residences home. Now, a new<br />
chapter is set to begin as the trio <strong>of</strong> established residences is about<br />
to be joined by a new kid on the campus block – the 692-bed<br />
student residence opening this fall.<br />
For thousands <strong>of</strong> current and former students pursuing postsecondary<br />
education, on-campus living provides the best<br />
alternative for combining accommodation and study. It's also a<br />
great way to widen social circles and meet a lot <strong>of</strong> new friends.
