Okano said that he likes it. "The furniture is new and the room is very large," he said. There is one problem though. He doesn't have a mailbox. The thing is that the students who are in the lounges were students who applied late,"'DeLong said. "So it's not like the first people to apply were placed in lounges. I feel bad for them that they don't have just a double room like everybody else has, but they do have a good living space. And you've got to remember that we're renovated over here. So even the lounges are nicer." But the overbooking caused problems, according to Lamens. "Yes, it did cause a problem with our housing and the University is making a concerted effort to do everything they can to accomodate the students as best we can," Lamens said.. "But there are some real positives here that I think the students should be looking at. The fact that the University is so well regarded and has -been getting so much national attention -is actually a good thing. I think that the student body should be really proud of the interest that Stony Brook'is getting." "We're definitely doing the best we can, the staff and everyone else," DeLong said. "I don't necessarily see it as a problem because we're going to be having buildings coming back on line in Tabler Quad that are currently going under renovations." Devries said he doesn't know what the answer to the increased demand for space is. "That's probably beyond my scope," he said. "In terms of making plans for how the spaces are allocated, I j'ust think that even though it's difficult for students this semester, I think it's good that enrollment is up and that occupancy is up. But I do realize that this is not necessarily a housing problem. It's an enrollment problem and housing is just a piece of it. It's a short term situation. Unfortunately, some students are caught in it."
