Q1.The court in this case is trying to determine whether certain residence hall contracts are leases or licenses.  Why does it make a difference? (Choose the best answer)
  I am not prepared.    

.

The court wants to know if an Illinois statute requiring the payment of interest on security deposits applies to the residence hall contracts.

An Illinois statute requires the payment of interest on security deposits to tenants under a lease.  Since the court determines that the statute applies to leases, not to licenses, it is necessary to characterize the residence hall contracts as leases or licenses.

Students may be moved from room to room only if the residence hall contracts are licenses rather than leases.
