Fall quarter at UC Santa Barbara begins this month, and more than a thousand UCSB students have not yet found a place to live in Isla Vista or the greater Santa Barbara area.
Atmika Iyer, county news editor at the Daily Nexus, anchors this episode, which focuses on the UCSB student housing crisis. She is joined by Nexus reporters Asumi Shuda and Sindhu Ananthavel, who report back on what they have learned about the housing shortage and the university's response.
This episode features sound from interviews with IV Community Services District Director Spencer Brandt, Isla Vista Tenants Union and Associated Students Legal Resource Center attorney Robin Unander and some UCSB students about their struggles finding housing.
