Personal troubles

So my roomates and I are having a problem coming to an agreement on how to split the rent and bills of our new palce. The biggest issue is that one of my roomates wants to have her boyfriend live in our apartment in her room. But that would be her and her boyfriend would only be paying half of what we have to pay because they are sharing a room. My problem is that she is choosing to have less space by having him live there so why should she get to be compensated with the price. It just doesnt seem fair that we have to pay twice as much as they do to live in the same place. I do understand their viewpoint but its just hard for me to get around.

Thoughts on a problem

Currently I am working with the student organization CAAS (Council of African American Students) to help solve their problem of how to get more students of color to attend this mostly white school. Every year CAAS goes to many Urban schools to recruit minorities to SCSU. While they are able to get the students up here for a tour of the school, many are detered from registering because of the racial issues they have heard about in the media. What can I do to find out better ways to get the students to register here. We need more diversity on the campus but people are too scared to come. Maybe a mentoring program could set up so that the students who do decide to come here dont feel alienated and can have an outlet to express their daily struggles.
