W: Yeah, students who are trying to sleep or do work are constantly doing to be disturbed. So people will try to get away as far as possible, probably by moving off-campus. So they’ll lose even more people.
M: Hum, I haven’t thought that. But still, once the construction is over, more people will probably want to live in the dorms, right? I mean the living conditions will be so much better.
W: If they can afford to. Do you know how much the college is planning to paying for this plan, by raising the cost of campus housing?
M: Oh, I didn’t realize that.
W: Yeah, so if it’s more expensive , why would people want to move back into the dorms if they can rent an apartment for less money?
