Ownership dictates the type and level of care a property gets.

BYU housing office is also culpable. They could yield an incredible amount of power, raising the bar on what can be called approved housing. The scuzzy minimum standard they employ now is consistent with the fact that when we moved my first daughter, many years ago, into Heritage Halls..there was a gigantic booger smeared on the wall next to her bed, and the mattress smelled like farts.

There's "no demand" for decent housing at BYU.
