Western to expand student residences

The University of Western Ontario is expanding its students residences with a plan to add upwards of 1,000 beds.
The move comes in response to the Ontario government’s promise last year and again this week in its budget to increase access to post-secondary institutions by 60,000 places by the 2015-2016 school year.
The new residence, would provide beds to mostly first-year students, but also provide space for upper-year and international students. The goal is to have it open in September 2013.
