In addition to the athletics article, the City Weekly section in the
Boston edition of the Globe had an article about Fenway House:

http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2003/09/14/mits_fenbeings_search_for_their_house_identity/

Choice quote:

  "Fenway House is one of the cheapest living groups....  But an MIT
  student-housing crunch has forced the group to stop considering
  freshman applications for the home's 14 single- and multi-person
  bedrooms."

I wish somebody had *told* us that there was a housing crunch, and
that's why MIT refuses to use the available off-campus FSILG housing
for freshmen...
