Riverpark Towers is said to be a place that offers the highest standards of resident service on a daily basis. Does this mean that they can enter your apartment whenever they please? I know that this issue has been brought up in the past, but I feel that it's getting ridiculous. I am currently a tenant at Riverpark, and I feel that their management procedures are unconventional.

Ohio University brought in a record freshman class of about 4,200 students last fall, but this feat was soon replaced with an aggravated call for reorganization from students who were feeling the squeeze as some doubles were converted to triples. The housing crunch has led administrators to plan further ahead for next year's incoming class that is estimated at 4,100 ' only 100 shy of last year's ' even though total enrollment at OU did not really go up despite the record number of freshmen. A new residence hall will be constructed on South Green. This hall will be used to clear out students from one residence hall each year to make renovations on each of the 41 residence halls in turn. This might be good news for future students, but, in reality, the new dorm does not really increase the number of beds on campus because it only allows for renovations. At some point the dorm will help ease housing problems, but not now, even when it is completed.
