Abstract/Summary
It is not an easy transition for college students to go from living in a place they have called home, to struggling to secure a reliable and affordable home as a college student who moved away from home for the first time. This significant milestone should be a task that is rewarding and exciting, rather than life-altering and stressful. When envisioning a way to heal the chaos of house searching in San Luis Obispo, "Mustang Living" would be a dedicated section of Mustang News, available in both print and digital formats, designed to serve as a comprehensive resource for students navigating housing options. The purpose of “Mustang Living” is to provide guidance. This is crucial in resolving the lack of understanding and advice for tenant rights and rental issues. The final project will be presented through research-based articles, student testimonials, expert insights, and practical tools to enhance the student housing experience.
