International Living-Learning Community

The International Living-Learning Community is designed for American students interested in overseas study and travel and learning more about world cultures, and international students who want to live with American students and learn more about the American culture. This community encourages intercultural understanding by attempting to place students in rooms with students from other countries.

Partners: This living-learning community will work closely with the Rinker Center for International Programs, Academic Advising, the Learning Center, the Counseling Center, and other campus departments to foster a strong support network for students studying in the United States or planning to study in other countries.

Classes:

  • ENG 103 - Rhetoric and Writing, 3 credit hours
  • MATH 125 - Mathematics and Its Applications, 3 credit hours
  • PHIL 100 - Introduction to Philosophy, 3 credit hours

Programming: Residents in the International Living-Learning Community are welcome to participate in the International Partner Program. The International Partner Program is a volunteer-based program, created as an opportunity for both international and American students to explore the many different cultures each person brings to the living-learning community and for non-native English speakers to practice the host language. This program is intended for students to meet someone new and learn about the other person’s culture and customs.

Location: Students in this program live in Studebaker East.
