Catholic University of America offers summer housing for interns

Published: 2005-07-22

WASHINGTON (CNS) -- Summer in Washington means two things: humidity and an influx of interns from all around the country. While it may not be able to ease the heat wave, The Catholic University of America makes life easier for the interns by offering them housing in its residential facilities. Prices range from $32 per person per night for an apartment-style room to $23 per person per night for an air-conditioned double-occupancy room. Amelie Brogden, the university's associate director for conferences and event planning, said some parents are "unnerved" by the fact that the university, in the northeast section of the District of Columbia, is in the middle of the city. But "most students feel the excitement" of its urban setting "and are energized by it," she said in an interview with Catholic News Service.
