First Year Experience - Eastern Oregon UniversityLiving-Learning Communities

Susan Murrell, Assistant Professor of Art

 

First-Year students living in the residence halls at Eastern Oregon University Fall 2012 will have the opportunity to choose from three new Living-Learning Communities (LLCs).

Students in the Art, Class, and Identity Living-Learning Community in Fall 2011

Being a part of an LLC is a great way to get connected to a core group of other first-year students on campus, both in and out of the classroom. Students will have the opportunity to live and learn together through common courses, make connections across disciplines, and to develop strong connections with each other as well as with faculty and staff; all important components of a successful college experience.

We have TWO Living-Learning Communities available for Fall of 2012!

Art and Community

Enjoy creating art in whatever form it may be?  Considering being an art major at EOU?  This is the LLC for you!

Health and Wellness

Do you want to learn about healthy eating? Do you enjoy working out and being well in both body and mind?  Considering a career in the health professions?  This LLC is for you!
