Residential-Learning Communities (RLC)
Residential-Learning Communities (RLCs) are specialized living environments that connect students inside and outside of the classroom. Each RLC is unique, but all are centered on a distinctive theme or academic major. Students who choose to live in an RLC have a direct connection to their classroom experience; opportunities for co-curricular programs and trips; and dedicated faculty and staff who work to make the community a success.
为什么选择RLC?
RLCs are an ideal way to make friends with peers who have similar interests or academic majors. Research shows that students who participate in an RLC have higher academic success rates, higher college graduation rates, and higher levels of satisfaction with their college experience, and an easier time connecting with their peers (Association of American 大学 and Universities, 2010). 在博彩平台排名的校园里, students who participate in RLCs feel more connected on-campus, feel more academically supported, and are offered more opportunities to connect with peers in their residential community.

Currently there are two Residential-Learning Communities available: the 健康 and Wellness RLC and the Honors RLC.
