San Jose State University to help evacuees

By Deborah Lohse

Mercury News

The 100 evacuees coming to San Jose from gulf states devastated by Hurricane Katrina will be housed in Spartan Village of San Jose State University, which has about 60 apartment units that formerly served as student family housing, officials said this morning.

A news conference scheduled for 12:30 p.m. today will provide more details.

San Jose will initially receive 100 evacuees from the devastated gulf-state region. Mayor Ron Gonzales's office has been working with Santa Clara County officials, the local chapter of the Red Cross, and San Jose State University to organize housing and support services for people who will be arriving in the South Bay. It's not known when they will arrive.

San Jose State built new high rises for the families that formerly lived in Spartan Village, which is currently empty.

I know where Spartan Village is -- old buildings but it is a community setting.
