I am a low income student myself. I took out the maximum loan offered to me and could not afford the GSU student dorms. Affording a place like this, I would have had to deal. I know a lot of people that do. This was not a "coded racial" remark by any terms. And I have no problem with critical race theory.

I *do* have a problem with loading students down with unnecessary fees and "extras" in order to charge exorbitant prices for housing. They are not doing any students a favor here, they are in the business of making money. In the long term, the prices will go down and it'll be nice infill for the city. In the short term, these will serve as luxury dorms and low income students will be denied the independence and the "college experience" due to the costs of attending college rising *ridiculously* over the last 35 years to the point that it's become a moneymaking racket.
