Living & Learning Community Advantages


My freshman year could not have been better. By participating in the Journalism Living and Learning community, my transition from high school to college was nearly perfect. Most of my floormates have similar majors to mine, so we all had at least two classes together (University 101 and Journalism 201). We all bonded immediately and formed a family- to this day we still share a facebook official mother! Coming from a very sheltered home, it was fun to be able to experience the college social life and know that I have a group of friends to make sure I'm safe. I have to say, one of the biggest perks besides gaining these AWESOME life-long friends is you never have to worry about eating alone. Also, my academic advisor is one of my teachers and we got to meet the heads of the School of Journalism and Mass Communications. I can not even explain how awesome of an experience it has been to live in the Journalism Living and Learning Community. To all of the future participants, I wish you so much luck and hope you have as great of a time as we all did.
