Ask some students at other colleges how they like forced triples and satellite housing?

My alma mater eliminated satellite housing at enormous expense, and kept the buildings shut despite a housing shortage prompted by increased enrollment requirements from the state.

Those rooms had that bad of a rap, and were seriously hindering the college's ability to attract students.

Also, take a look at graduation/retention rates for students living in forced triples/quads. I don't have numbers offhand, but it isn't good.
