College of Health & Human Services Living Learning Community


 

The College of Health and Human Services (CHHS) Living Learning Community is for first year students with majors in the College of Health and Human Services. This Living Learning Community provides a residential environment that fosters peer networking and academic success for first year students. 

I’m grateful I have a place full of people that are like me! I didn’t have any friends coming here, so it made it easier for me to get acclimated to school. The people in my LLC are amazing!

Allyson Burke

Students will live together in a common "pod" and will participate in activities that will promote a smooth transition academically, socially, and personally to college life. 

Students in the CHHS LLC will enroll in one common course during the fall semester, engage with their LLC Fellow, and benefit from programming tailored to their needs and interests.
