Students (most of them freshmen) at this gated-community complex of 8- to 15-story apartment buildings get a fully furnished private room in a suite that includes either two or four bedrooms and one or two baths. Each suite comes with a fully equipped kitchen and a living room. Bedrooms are wired with high-speed Ethernet, a high-speed voice link, and cable TV--wifi also is available throughout the complex. There’s also a convenience store, mail delivery, health clinic, and 24-hour security. “… We also have some of the best views in Atlanta,” one resident told the school newspaper. There are people who pay thousands of dollars to get views like ours.”
