LONG BEACH, Miss. (AP) — The University of Southern Mississippi is exploring the possibility of adding student housing to its Gulf Park campus in Long Beach.
The Sun Herald reports (http://bit.ly/1HEoHeo) USM President Rodney Bennett issued a news release Thursday that says the effort is a response to organizations and individuals along the Gulf Coast asking the university to consider adding housing.
Bennett said an 11-member committee will begin in January to evaluate the feasibility of such a project. The committee's recommendations will then be distributed among the university community, as well as shared with alumni and others connected to the school.
