This Current Report on Form 8-K is not being filed to correct any error or omission in the financial or other information previously filed in the Company’s 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q.

In April and June 2011, the Company sold the collegiate housing properties referred to as Collegiate Village, located in Macon, Georgia, and Clayton Station, located in Morrow, Georgia, respectively. ASC 205-20 requires retrospective presentation of discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company reflected the results of the retrospective presentation of discontinued operations in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2011. The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to include the retrospective presentation and disclosure requirements in the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

This Current Report on Form 8-K updates Part I – Items 1 and 2 of the Company’s 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q to reflect the retrospective presentation of discontinued operations.  This Current Report on Form 8-K is not being filed to correct any error or omission in the financial or other information previously filed in the Company’s 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q.  The updated financial information is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference in the Company’s currently effective registration statements.   All other information in the Company’s 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q has not been otherwise updated for events or developments that occurred subsequent to the filing of the 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, all other items that remain unaffected are omitted in this filing.  The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the 2011 First Quarter Form 10-Q and all filings made by the Company with the SEC since May 9, 2011.
