Why did you choose to live in a Learning Community?

I chose to live in a Learning Community because I knew that if I lived with students who shared my common interests and major, my college experience would be enhanced because we are all striving for the same or similar goals.

 

What has been the best part of living in a Learning Community?

The best part of living in the Eco House is being surrounded by a great group of people who share the same values and concerns about the environment and participating in intellectual conversations with one another.

 

What is your favorite part of living on campus?

Living on campus is the best way to meet people and build one-on-one relationships with professors. There are always activities going on that allow students to build a strong community.

 

What would you say to a student who is considering living in an LC?

I would tell them to join the Learning Community because you are enabling yourself to meet and live with the same people who share your interests, and you will have that strong group of people to rely on.
