Students got together to make roommate matches at events sponsored by the Off-Campus Housing Program and the Housing Information Office in recent weeks. Those who needed subtenants and roommates met with people looking for a place to live during the nine gatherings in August. Here, Amy Law, a master of social work student looking for a place to live, chats with Claus Madsen, an international exchange student in the MBA program who needed a roommate. Off-Campus Housing also offers online roommate-matching and other services on its Web site, which can be accessed from the off-campus housing link at http://www.housing.umich.edu. The link is increasingly popular, receiving more than 20,000 hits per day in July. (Photo by Marcia Ledford,
