When it comes to house and apartment hunting, may the odds be ever in your favor. The equivalent of Lawrence's own Hunger Games, finding a place to live, brings out some fierce competition. With available houses disappearing day by day, many students overlook the idea of apartment living.
However, when it comes to finding roommates and signing leases, it can be easy to get overwhelmed, especially with the abundance of information and fine print.
Apartment Fest, sponsored by the University Daily Kansan Advertising Staff, provides an opportunity for KU students to see all the living spaces available to them.
Ten to 15 apartment complexes are scheduled to table on the lawn of Stauffer-Flint, and plan to hand out T-shirts, cups, koozies and other promotional materials.
HERE ARE A FEW THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:
Make sure to check out the parking situation, including fees, location and availability.
Find out the policy on pets. Are they pet friendly? Does the rent increase with the addition of a pet on your property? Even if you aren't planning on bringing a pet with you, keep in mind that other pet owners in your area could generate a lot of extra noise.
Terms and conditions are often subject to change. Depending on move-in specials and the length of leases, rent prices can often fluctuate more than you expected.
The event is all day April 10 on the Stauffer-Flint lawn.

biggest — stage in college basketball. The one-time North Carolina native will have his opportunity to march into Cameron Indoor Stadium and the Dean Dome and prove that not only was he one of the game's top players, he's one of the top coaches, too.
But if Manning does transform Wake Forest, if he does prove himself capable of winning on college basketball's highest platform and starts knocking off the blue bloods, then there'll likely be a North Carolina coach leaving for his home in Kansas.
That's not to say that he'll succeed though. There are numerous reasons why Manning could fail. In the past 10 years the Demon Deacons have placed higher than fifth in the ACC just twice (2005, 2009) and given the current state of the conference, there's no guarantee they'll be there again anytime soon.
And how perfect would that be.

Meanwhile in Baton Rouge, La., the rest of the Jayhawk track and field team was competing at the Battle on the Bayou, also producing performances that stacked up with the best in school history, Sophomore Rhavan King turned in one of these performances in the 800 meters. The Memphis, Tenn., native crossed the finish line in
One of these historic outings came from senior Natalie Becker, who traveled with the rest of the Jayhawk distance runners to Palo Alto, Calif., for the Stanford Invitational. Becker completed the 5,000 meter race in 16:20.80, which not only earned her a 19th place finish in a stacked field of competition, but it etched her name into the Kansas record books as the fastest 5,000-meter runner in school history. Becker's record-breaking performance also moved her into the top 25 in the NCAA rankings.
also turned in a time to a member, finishing the race in 44.67. The time gave the quartet a third place finish in the event and also made them the sixth-fastest in school history.
There were a total of 15 performances in Louisiana that cracked the NCAA West Region top 25, which ultimately gave the Jayhawk women's team a second place team finish, and the men a third place team finish. According to junior multi-event specialist Lindsay Vollmer, the slew of good performances over the weekend show the potential the team has this outdoor season.
"We didn't get everybody we wanted to nationals [for the indoor season], but I think we're a better outdoor team," Vollmer said. "If we can just continue to build, I think we have a shot to do some good things."
