Housing
Mariah Orzolek is the housing director and can be consulted about on and off campus housing.  She can be reached at 419-783-2563.  Although your veteran’s status exempts you from the requirement of living on campus, we welcome you to the campus and invite you to take advantage of our on campus housing.  If you need help finding off campus housing, Mrs. Orzolek serves as a resource to put you in contact with other housing sources.
