At the Ball State University, apartment complexes will now allow pets to live with the students. Chris Wilkey, assistant director of University Apartments said, “We want people to live as they want to live.”

Such law of not allowing pets on campus residences have been around for a long time, although service and emotional support animals are allowed. However, Wilkey also saw the benefits of having other pets as emotional supports for students.

Katrina Brown, a Senior Sociology and English Literature Double Major, who happens to be a cat owner, considers this as good news. She would no longer have to come home feeling like a bad cat mom.

Students who wish to have pets with them will have to pay a 200-dollar pet deposit after approval and a $25 monthly pet fee per animal.
