Campuses and student housing are no longer just a place to sleep for students, but rather the space that promotes connection and supports overall mental health. Whether it's through fostering a sense of inclusivity, offering tailored amenities, or design, student communities are now embracing a more wellness-centric approach by integrating certain amenities and decisions that help them connect, study and feel better.As we acknowledge Mental Health Awareness Month, I interviewed Beryl DePalma Alder, AIA associate and senior project designer at Moody Nolan, about what it means to design student housing projects with wellness in mind. Since well-being is not limited only to amenities and green spaces, Alder shared some insights on integrating natural light, biophilic design, adaptable layouts and certain colors into communities to foster connection and support students' mental health.Even the smallest architectural or design decisions can make or break an environment. If done right, thoughtful design creates a sense of belonging and reduces stress. “Design is preventive care,” believes Alder and it can help reduce burdens by incorporating wellness into the daily lives of students.Here's what we talked about:What is purposeful design? (1:45)Elements that can make or break thoughtful design (03:20)A closer look at Moody Nolan's work (07:02)How can wellness-focused design make a difference? (10:42)What's in and what's out for thoughtful design (13:30)Incorporating nature and flexibility into student housing (15:12)Amenities that shine (18:10)More listening, less designing (22:23)

Although it recently showed some cooling off and is influenced by the volatile economic environment, student housing remains a hotspot for investors. Tier 1 institutions have kept their strong fundamentals, including high preleasing rates, despite an overall decrease in rent growth. Several headwinds, such as construction slowdown and affordability, still pose challenges in the sector, but student housing remains high on investor appetite and has shown resilience in the face of broader multifamily volatility.In this episode of Student Housing Unlocked, Coastal Ridge's Co-Founder and & Co-CEO Patrick McBride joins me as we discuss the company's history from a localized business to a national-scale company that is now present in over 50 markets, mostly focused on institutions in high-growth markets. Investment success largely hinges on experience, which can significantly influence your overall strategy. McBride offers an overall look at investors' appetite in today's climate and shares the lessons that helped him scale the business, along with early-stage risks and affordability pressures. How did three college roommates go from investing in a single student asset to an almost $5.1 billion platform? McBride explains.Here's what we touched on:From college roommates to business partners (01:41)No shortage of early challenges in student housing (03:52)Mitigating risks and redefining investment strategies (05:48)Tier 1 markets remain the main hotspot (06:41)Is the student housing market cooling?

With state capital support on the decline and infrastructure aging out of usefulness, higher education leaders are under pressure to find new ways to fund capital projects—without compromising mission, control, or long-term sustainability. In this episode of Changing Higher Ed®, Dr. Drumm McNaughton explores creative capital funding strategies institutions are using to meet urgent facility and housing demands. His guest, Brent Miller—Higher Education Market Sector Leader at HED—shares how colleges and universities across the country are structuring public-private partnerships (P3s), securing transformational donor gifts, and leveraging local bond initiatives to move large-scale capital plans forward. This conversation is especially relevant for presidents, CFOs, trustees, and VPs of facilities navigating deferred maintenance, campus growth, or strategic repositioning. Brent brings 30+ years of architectural and capital planning experience to the conversation, offering insights from some of the most innovative projects in higher ed capital development. Topics Covered: Why traditional state funding is no longer enough—and what institutions are doing about it How public-private partnerships (P3s) work, and which types of projects they're best suited for Case studies from USC, UC Irvine, University of Michigan, UC Merced, and more Donor and corporate partnership models that align with institutional missions How local bond initiatives are changing the future of community colleges What boards and presidents need to know about aligning capital projects with strategy and risk Real-World Examples Discussed: USC's Iovine and Young Academy, funded by a $70M gift from Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre UC Irvine's interdisciplinary health sciences building—merging donor intent and design University of Michigan's Ford Robotics Building, a co-developed corporate-academic research hub UC Merced 2020, a $1.3B P3 that doubled the university's physical capacity Cal State San Marcos' early mixed-use P3 development for housing and retail A facilities deal struck to replace plant equipment at cost and pay via utility savings General Motors University as an early model of industry-aligned higher ed Three Key Takeaways for Leadership: Ensure capital alignment with strategy: Every capital initiative should support the university's mission, enrollment trajectory, and long-term vision. Build in lifecycle costs: Deferred maintenance and energy savings must be part of the upfront planning—not afterthoughts. Communicate across stakeholders: From boards and donors to students and local communities, transparency is essential to success. This episode provides both a strategic framework and actionable insight into how today's institutions can overcome capital constraints through innovation, collaboration, and long-range thinking. Recommended For: Presidents, provosts, CFOs, trustees, board chairs, and facilities executives leading campus master planning, housing expansion, or long-term capital strategy.

When written in numbers, today's full date has four twos, a zero, and a five. Put them all together in the right way and it's February 22, 2025, and I will not play a similar puzzle with the name of the show which begins with two C-words and an E. I'm Sean Tubbs, the producer of Charlottesville Community Engagement which is made up of the audio versions of stories about local and regional government in the Central Virginia listening area. Let's get to it.Today's audio versions of stories already published in written form:* A round-up of the landscape of local elections as the spring comes closer* Charlottesville School Superintendent Gurley presents budget request to City Council (learn more)* A look at the City of Charlottesville's finances before the next budget comes out (learn more)* Two members of City Council pay tribute to the late Charlottesville Mayor Satyendra Huja (learn more)* The Buildings and Grounds Committee of the University of Virginia Board of Visitors endorses the design for new student residences planned for the intersection of Ivy Road and Copeley Road (learn more)* The University of Virginia's Board of Visitors has the first of two emergency meetings to discuss the future of gender-affirming care at the UVA Health System (learn more)Every so often there's a podcast version which may also have something worth reading in the text. It's up to you to decide. First shout-out: Celebrating the community's other information organizations!In today's first shout-out in the form of a house ad, I want to make sure everyone knows that every edition of the regular newsletter (not the podcast ones) ends with a section called Reading Material. Charlottesville Community Engagement is just one offering in a landscape that includes the Charlottesville Daily Progress, C-Ville Weekly, Charlottesville Tomorrow, and Cville Right Now, I curate links from these sources because I believe a truly informed community needs multiple perspectives.There's also the Cavalier Daily, Vinegar Hill Magazine, the Fluvanna Review, the Crozet Gazette, NBC29, CBS19, and other sources. But if you look every day, you'll find links to articles in national publications, all linked to give you more perspectives on some of the issues of our times.Show notes for 817A: Why this one and not another one?In this particular edition of the newsletter that carries the podcast, a behind-the-scenes glimpse into how things get made. For the past year now, audio production has shifted as I began doing a radio version for WTJU. The show airs at 6 a.m. so the audience may be low, but I'm grateful to have a regular place in the airwaves.This week was another where I didn't have a lot of audio because most of the stories this week were ones that didn't originate from a meeting. Take a look at the table below the second shout-out to see what I've been up for the past two weeks. By the time I get to Saturday morning, I'm ready to get to the new set of stories.I spent Friday putting together the audio versions, a process that takes a lot longer than it used to because the audio can't be terrible. It could be terrible when this was just a podcast. On Friday morning I wasn't sure how I was going to pull off putting together a 29 minute piece, but somehow it happened.One of the ideas was to take two of the Election 2025 stories and put them together as the show's opener. I almost never read new copy for WTJU but this time it made sense to eat up time in the show by giving listeners a little more information.I also added about a minute to the piece on members of City Council paying tribute to the late Satyendra Huja by including a clip from his 2007 interview with Charlottesville Tomorrow. I was able to grab that from his cvillepedia entry and imagine my surprise when I heard my voice as the interviewer! I forgot I had done that.In any case, that's this set of stories. I'm going to leave the text for the script for the election round-up.Election round-up: Information on Jack Jouett District race in Albemarle and Charlottesville School BoardThere are 254 days until the general election on November 4. Virginians will go to the polls to elect a new Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General. They'll also select a member of the House of Delegates as all 100 seats are up.There are also local elections across the area.For the first time in six years, there will be a contested race for the Democratic nomination for a seat on the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors.In January, Supervisor Diantha McKeel announced she would not seek re-election to another term for the seat she has held since 2015. Two candidates have expressed interest in replacing her as the Democrat on the ballot for the Jack Jouett District.Sally Duncan of Earlysville, a history teacher, has filed paperwork with the Virginia Department of Elections to run as a Democrat for the seat.Earlier this month, historian David Shreve told members of the Albemarle Democratic Party that he would also be seeking the nomination.The two as well any other candidates who emerge will be on the ballot of the June 17, 2025 Democratic Primary unless the local party decides to pick another nomination process.Duncan received an undergraduate degree in American Studies from the University of Virginia in 2020 and earned a graduate degree in Religious Studies in 2023. She's currently a high school history teacher and has a total of five children.Duncan will formally announce her candidacy at the County Office Building on February 25 at 11 a.m.Shreve has served as a member of the Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee as well as the Albemarle County Economic Development Authority. He has also served as co-chair of the Jack Jouett District Albemarle Democratic Party Committee. Shreve has also been involved with several non-profit groups including a board member at the group Advocates for a Sustainable Albemarle Population.In his professional capacity, Shreve has worked for the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service at the University of Virginia and spent one year working for the National Governors Association. He recently started a job as a senior economist for the Center for the Advancement of a Steady State Economy.This year in Albemarle, both Rio District Supervisor Ned Gallaway and Samuel Miller District Supervisor Jim Andrews are up for election. Neither has yet revealed their plans.There will also be a contested race for the Charlottesville City School Board. Last time around there were four seats open, and four candidates emerged.

From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Monday, November 20th and I'm Keith Ippolito. In Split Vote, Cobb Denies Student Housing Tower The Cobb Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 to deny Landmark Properties' proposal for a five-story student housing building near Kennesaw State University. The project, named The Standard, was to include 191 units and 643 bedrooms. Despite reducing the number of beds from 761 to 643 to address density concerns, the proposal faced opposition due to potential impacts on traffic, property values, and increased density. Chair Lisa Cupid and Commissioner Monique Sheffield opposed the denial, citing the need for student housing and the university's contribution to the community. Concerns were raised about the lack of student and parent voices in discussions, and the potential for increased crime was debated. The project was seen as a solution to the housing shortage for students, but ultimately, the board decided the location was unsuitable. Commissioner Jerica Richardson led the motion to deny, emphasizing unresolved issues related to property value and traffic. For more news about our community, visit mdjonline.com.

If you're thinking about venturing into student housing in real estate, today's guest has the expertise you need! Join JD and Melissa as they chat with Ryan Chaw, who introduces his innovative room hacking system - a perfect strategy for anyone looking to break into the student housing market. Ryan's real estate journey is one that many can easily relate to, making his insights both practical and inspiring for aspiring investors! Stay tuned!   Here's what to expect on the podcast: Ryan's transition from being a pharmacist to a full-time real estate investor. Factors to consider when starting a student housing business. Implement systems for property management, including virtual assistants and software tools. Ryan's business growth plan and his coaching program. And much more! About Ryan: My grandpa encountered a lot of racism/prejudice when trying to buy his first property in America but worked hard and persisted to eventually buy 3 properties in the SF Bay Area, and this inspired me to get into real estate investing as well.   I graduated as a Pharmacist in 2016 and worked at a hospital in Infectious Diseases and Pediatrics, providing great service, which later translated into me becoming a good landlord.   I purchased one single-family home a year and slowly built up a reputation at my local college for having high-quality student housing rental spaces. Because I rented by the room, there was double the rental income and a lot more cash flow compared to renting by the whole house. By the age of 28, I became a millionaire and was earning multiple 6 figures in rental income on my student rentals.   I teach others my “room-hacking system”: figuring out neighborhoods with great cash flow, renovating to increase the max rentable space, finding high quality tenants, and man aging the properties with unique systems.   I built a community of like-minded creative real estate investors who focus on getting one deal at a time. We provide great quality affordable student housing and have a lot of fun doing it.   In my free time I love to travel to many foreign countries to just absorb the culture and life. So far, a couple countries I've been to include Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Belize, Paris, London, and Germany.   Connect with Ryan Chaw!
