			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week while browsing through industry news in student housing, I heard that the <a title="SCSU SGA" href="http://secureapp.netclubmgr.com/ICS/CM/V2/Student/Club.aspx?uid=stclsu&amp;ClubId=6885" target="_blank">Student Government Association</a> (SGA) at <a title="StCloudState.edu" href="http://www.stcloudstate.edu/" target="_blank">Saint Cloud State University</a> was planning to begin development on an Off-Campus Housing website for students.  The <a href="http://www.universitychronicle.com/" target="_blank">University Chronicle</a> article (<a title="Article: SGA Designs New Website" href="http://www.universitychronicle.com/news/sga-designs-new-web-site-1.2059097" target="_blank">SGA Designs New Website</a>), announced that the Student Government would be rallying students, school and community to create a sorely needed resource for SCSU students. The website will be designed to centralize local housing information and make it more accessible to the approximately 15,000 students that live off-campus.</p>
<p>I reached out to the Chair of Campus Affairs Tom Martin, who is spearheading the project for the SGA, to see if Rent Update might be of service in any way.  After a quick trip to St Cloud, I had the opportunity to sit down for a short meeting with Tom.  We discussed his plans for the project and the challenges that they faced in launching a Rental Listing Service.  Challenges that we have faced as well, while building RentUpdate.com.</p>
<p>Our meeting was productive for both sides as I learned a great deal from Tom’s experiences, and hope I could provide a sliver of wisdom and insight from my own.  I offered Tom and the SGA of St Cloud State University, Rent Update’s assistance in anyway to help them overcome the challenges they face.</p>
<p>We wish them the best, and hope to be of service.</p>
