Florida State University student housing

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
When I was first applying for student housing my freshman year I came to this wiki page for help on deciding which hall I wanted to get into. Although it had good information it wasn't quite what I was looking for. I thought it needed some more sections displaying info that would be more beneficial to students.

Evaluate the article
Lead section - The lead gives a brief factual overview of FSU housing and statistics. It could be improved by mentioning the role of housing in student culture/experience.

Content - The article provides extensive detail on the physical buildings and history. However, the student experience perspective is missing. Details on hall traditions, resident life, and student opinions could make it more engaging.

Tone/balance - The tone is neutral and factual. But adding student viewpoints could provide more balance between official info and lived experiences.

Sources/references - Sources are primarily from official FSU sites. Adding student newspaper articles or interviews could provide more diversity.

Organization - Well organized into sections by housing type. An additional section on student life in the halls could enrich the structure.

Images - Images of the buildings are helpful. Pictures of students, campus events, etc could better visualize student experiences.

Overall - The article offers useful factual information on FSU housing facilities and history. To better capture student viewpoints and culture, incorporating student media, interviews, and perspectives would make a more engaging, balanced article.
