Ireland's student housing crisis is drawing renewed attention, with reports that hundreds of students at third-level institutions are homeless. Commenters contrast a 2018 article on the same problem with coverage from June this year, arguing the situation has not improved but worsened. The sentiment 'no student should have to choose between a roof over their head and their degree' is being shared widely, keeping pressure on the government and universities.
Why now: Rising rents and a persistent shortage of student accommodation in Ireland are forcing students into homelessness, keeping the issue in public debate.
