In an effort to address a shortage of on-campus housing, UNT emailed current students a $1,000 buyout in exchange of their on-campus residency while some resident advisors currently have a freshman roommate. Students that lived in single occupancy suites at Victory Hall, which are typically reserved for upperclassmen, received an email about the buyouts. “I genuinely thought it was a scam,” said sophomore Christina Bridges. “I accepted the offer because I needed the money for the school year.” Bridges said that in the long run her apartment living situation would be better due to its proximity to campus rather than having to make the commute from Victory Hall. Although the offer only stood at $1,000, students felt that the offer wasn’t enough. “There should have been more offered, considering the fact that we pay more than $1000 to live in the dorms,” said Bridges. “Another difficulty is that we have to make monthly payments instead of just paying for it all at once.” Tiffany Lipscomb, the associate director of freshmen recruitment, said that although the numbers won’t be official until the 12th class day, the estimated number of incoming freshman is between 5,200 and 5,400 students. UNT policy requires first year college students enrolled in more than nine hours to live on campus. View Full Article

Construction of UNT at Frisco’s main campus is scheduled to begin in fall 2020 and be completed by fall 2022. The campus will open in spring 2023. The campus will offer up to 16 undergraduate degrees ranging from business to Consumer Experience Management. Dr. Wesley Randall, the dean of UNT at Frisco, said they plan to implement courses that will help students meet the demands of careers that require digital literacy. “The total project budget of $100 million included roughly $9 million to acquire and renovate a Frisco Economic Development building in addition to the first phase of the campus,” said Bob Brown, UNT’s senior vice president for finance and administration. “That building has been acquired and renovated. Ninety-one million dollars remains in the first phase budget.” The 100-acre campus site in Frisco will be the new learning ground for 20,000 to 25,000 students. Randall said he plans to take advantage of partnerships in Frisco to create an “industry-type” student life experience. “What we don’t want to do is overly replicate Denton,” Randall said.
