Bonaventure avoids coed housing, yet Canisius cultivates it

ST. BONAVENTURE (March 21) – On the last selection day of their freshman year, St. Bonaventure University juniors Marissa Morill and Cassie Stubbs entered the Reilly Center, thinking they would be choosing their housing.
            With no more rooms available, Morill, Stubbs and about 30 other students wrote their desired roommates on a list, said Stubbs.
            “We didn’t know where we were living until August – when bills came out,” said Stubbs, a journalism and mass communication major.
            That year Morill and Stubbs lived on Falconio Hall’s first floor – on which both men and women lived.
