Interest-Based Communities

Residence Life offers Living Learning Communities that focus on unique interests and experiences. Students may be placed into these communities only after completing an application for their space of interest. To learn more about the application process, go to the housing options landing page.

Interest-based living communities are overseen by Residence Life staff and faculty advisors from various academic departments. These communities include: 

  • Cairn Wellness Community (First Floor Noah Hall)
  • Sci-Fi Community (Second Floor Noah Hall)
  • Noise-Reduced Areas (Fourth Floor Noah Hall & Fourth Floor Burton Hall)

Residence Life offers the opportunity to establish new interest-based housing options. To learn more and begin the process to create a new interest-base housing option, select the Interest-based Creation Process tab to the right.
