York housing is planning a commuter floor in Tatham Hall at McLaughlin College.
The second floor of the college residence will be converted into a floor for commuter students to rent out for a night during the school year.
“[It will] offer York undergraduate students an overnight accommodation option,” said Debbie Kee, director of housing services. “The rooms will be available for students who plan to stay on campus late to study, or for students who are anticipating bad weather and do not want to commute.”
Kee said that the floor would include 16 single rooms and four double rooms, a total of 24 beds. While she said that the cost to rent the room have not been solidified yet, she estimated that it would probably be around $25 a night including tax.
