Community Snapshot
Vision Statement
To support the missions of the University and of the University Honors Program the Honors Living Learning Program brings together goal-oriented, talented students with a commitment to academic excellence in a supportive, academically focused living and learning environment. In this environment, innovative programs and services that positively influence the culture of learning within the entire residential system are designed and refined. Participation in this program fosters academic success, personal development, leadership development, and commitment to diversity.
What makes this community so special?
It's certainly good to live with other Honors students who will be able to relate to you academically but there is more to this community than just living together.
A committee of students, faculty, and staff have been working for over a year to develop special programs for this special "living learning center". These programs include:
- Faculty in Residence - A Wright State faculty
member will live and work in the community and
will involve her/himself with the residence
life staff and with the students outside of
the classroom.
- Floor Themes - Each floor will have a theme.
The themes will include: the environment; health/wellness/fitness;
the arts; international issues; politics; spirituality;
technology; education/teaching; great books;
the media; and choose your own theme. Theme
floors will have SOME of their floor decorations
and floor workshops revolving around their theme.
- Philanthropies/Service Projects may also
be planned around the themes. Theme floors do
not mean that you will eat, sleep, and breath
your theme!
- Courses offered where you live - Some of
your courses as an Honors student will be taught
in one of the building's two classrooms. One
classroom is a computer learning lab.
- "Honors Dialogues" offered where you live
- Honors dialogues are a traditional activity
for the University Honors program.
- Staggered hours in lounges between study
and social time - We all need time for both!
Of course all of the traditional residence life programs will be offered:
- Resident Assistants (RAs) on each floor - An RA is a person who's been specially selected and trained to assist you in your adjustment to college, be a support for you, help you with conflicts, provide educational opportunities and social activities, and be a resource.
- Community Council- Get involved in planning activities for you community and in residential governance.
- Floor Standards - You floor decides how you'll treat each other and hold each other accountable for the standards you set.
- Educational Workshops - You'll plan and/or attend educational workshops with your Resident Assistant.
- Social Activities - Many of these are planned so you can take some time to get to know your fellow community members in between all that studying!
