What I Did: Moved to Forester Village
For the first two years of my college career at Huntington University, I lived in Roush Hall. I will always cherish the memories I made with my roommate and suitemates during that time, and yet, I knew I wanted to have another living experience in my last two years of college. Thankfully, HU offers another residence option: Forester Village.
