Mizzou to rent out unoccupied dorm rooms amid falling enrollment, budget cuts - MATT CAMPBELL, Kansas City Star

Now anyone can have that college dorm experience for just $120 a night. The University of Missouri will rent out empty rooms this fall for home football weekends and other events at the Columbia campus. The move was announced Thursday at the university Board of Curators meeting. The rooms are “walking distance from Memorial Stadium,” promises the Residential Life webpage. A “guest housing” page created this week offers furnished, two-bedroom suites with four single beds for $120 per night. Parking is extra. “Free high-speed wireless access, and economy bed linens and towels are included,” the website says. http://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article157713584.html
