DESCRIPTION
Colin Marshall delivered the presentation at 2014 Student Housing Forum. The 5th annual Student Housing Forum brought together university planners and managers with designers and student accommodation experts to look at the ways in which universities can provide distinctive, affordable, secure, supportive and inclusive campus living. It examined the features that distinguish best practice, considers the challenges for supply and affordability and beyond that explores the ways in which student accommodation goes beyond a residence to an environment that offers the best campus experience.

The building blocks
HOME BLOCK NEIGHBORHOOD VILLAGE
How do students gather & interact?
28
The home Primarily a one- or two-person space:
• Privacy obtainable by closing a door
• Moving away from shared bathrooms and sleeping quarters
• Apartment or unit style that could hold as up to eight students, with one- or two -person rooms
29
The block A grouping of a number of “homes”:
• Usually referred to as a “floor,” “wing,” or “pod”
• Population totals from 15 to 50, though about 30 students considered typical
• Includes residential support
• Community space
30
The neighborhood A grouping of “blocks” and essentially a single building:
– Population of approximately 150 people
– Common amenities and shared public space such as a lobby and front desk, classroom, café, etc.
31
The village An arrangement of “neighborhoods” plus a central commons:
– Population in the order of 500 to 1,000 or more
– Size depends on demand
– Community “connected” by geographical proximity, common spaces (such as dining halls), sense of location,
common civic concern.

Global challenges for the profession
34
35
Global challenge How is the profession responding?
Constantly evolving tertiary education landscape
Housing professional looking to their associations – eg ACUHO-I. Adapting, innovating , stretching and more for less
Supporting students whose needs are constantly changing
Building resilience, innovative programs and support The new norm Cost of living pressures
Alcohol and binge drinking Taking the lead with education programs and initiatives.
Occupancy challenges, fluctuating demand and “crystal balling”
Marketing focus, commercial orientation/diversification. Early offers, retention programs etc
Growth, new building developments and refurbishment
Financing and partnership models becoming more prevalent
Professional legitimacy - the impact of student residential experiences
Some countries and institutions recognise and support this but it’s not universal
“Student housing professionals should have a world view, an international perspective, and global knowledge to understand what is going on around the world and be able to adapt to new trends and changes. Think global and act local”
Rebecca Chan, Director of Student Residence Office, City University of Hong Kong
