On-Campus Housing<br />
Two housing options are available on campus - The <strong>Rock</strong> Apartments and the Campground. The<br />
most popular accomodation, the <strong>Rock</strong> Apartments, are available for alumni if they want to stay<br />
on campus. With air conditioning, kitchens and living rooms, these apartment-style residence<br />
halls are a short distance from many activities but have all the comforts of a 4-star hotel. A<br />
minimum of two persons is required for these units (up to four per unit). The cost is $45/person.<br />
An alternative option for those who enjoy "roughing it," is the <strong>SRU</strong> Campground. It is available<br />
for those who want to bring their RV, trailer or tent. Call 724-738-4801 for details.<br />
