BIOLOGY and visual arts student Caitlin Brown made the decision to leave her Bowral home four years ago in search of a tertiary education at the University of Wollongong and, eventually, a career in Sydney.
Attracted to Wollongong's city atmosphere and pristine beaches, Ms Brown soon moved into a cosy three-bedroom house near the city centre.But a roof comes at a price, and each year she must search out others willing to pay about $90 a week to share the home.She and fellow student Dale Henry, both 21, have been "bombarded" with inquiries since the property was advertised on the uni's website four weeks ago.
