| From dorms to hotels - 99 sec
Hundreds of college students in New Jersey are living in hotels this semester - a short term fix to a severe campus housing shortage buffeting the state. With state aid dropping, the housing shortage also is prompting colleges to go deeply into debt as they build state-of-the-art facilities. New housing has gone up or is planned to go up at more than a dozen colleges in the past five years. (video by Ana M. Alaya)

| Prison farming - 120 sec
With six dairy and crop farms totaling 1,930 acres, the New Jersey Department of Corrections is one of the largest farmers in the state, according to the Department of Agriculture. Dairy farms run by the DOC's self-sufficient AgriIndustries program maintain some 700 animals statewide and run almost exclusively on prison labor. Prisoners either live on the farm or are bussed in as day laborers. And though its tough work, rolling hills beat a prison cell any day, say these minimum security inmates.
