From Martha Timberlake (at Richland College):

Do you know of anyone who might have a room to rent to a college
student?  A young woman who works part-time in the learning center at
Richland and takes classes at UTD is looking for a place to live.  I’ve
known Maryam for the past couple of years, and she is a conscientious
student and dependable employee.  If you know of anyone with a room
available, please pass on Maryam’s contact information:
