Student housing at the University of California, Los Angeles is governed by two separate departments, the Office of Residential Life and Housing and Hospitality Services, and provides housing for both undergraduates and graduate students, on and off-campus. ==Undergraduate== UCLA's original residence hall was Hershey Hall, located on Hilgard Avenue in South Campus. It was named after Mira Hershey, who bequeathed $300,000 to have the all-women dorm built.〔(Hershey Hall )〕 The original Hershey Hall of the 1930s is still in use today as an academic building. However, the west wing that was added later was demolished to make way for the Terasaki Life Sciences Building. The men's wing, built in 1959, was located in the current site of Parking Garage 2. Today, UCLA’s entire undergraduate residential community is located on a ridge on the northwestern edge of the campus called “the Hill.” The Hill consists of 17 high-rise towers and 5 low-rise residential complexes housing 11,000 residents; dining halls; commons buildings containing student services, conference facilities, and classrooms; facilities for recreational and varsity sports; the Southern Regional Library; and Tom Bradley International Hall, which contains services for foreign students. Student life on the Hill is under the care of the Residential Life (ResLife), formerly called "Office of Residential Life (ORL)". Currently, incoming first-year students are guaranteed three years of on-campus housing and incoming transfer students are guaranteed one year of housing. The Housing Master Plan aims to guarantee housing to all undergraduates for four years by 2014.〔Ko, Amy (2002). "It's Not Your Parents' Dorm Anymore" ''UCLA Magazine'' 8.〕 The Hill recently underwent the Northwest Campus In-fill Project, which added an additional 1,525 beds, 10 faculty in-residence apartments, a 750-seat dining hall, and four residential towers in 2013. At that point, UCLA will be able to house 12,000 undergraduates, and will begin plans to provide a four-year housing guarantee for all incoming freshmen. Two of these buildings, Holly Ridge and Gardenia Way, which are part of De Neve Plaza, opened February 2012. The other two, Sproul Cove and Sproul Landing, were completed in September 2013. Sproul Cove stands on the previously-unoccupied ridge below Rieber Hall. Sproul Landing stands on the former site of the Office of Residential Life, which has relocated to Tom Bradley International Hall.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.housing.ucla.edu/construction/videos/3D-Tour-Through-New-Student-Housing-Development.html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「UCLA student housing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
