Description

New for Fall 2025: The Latinx/Hispanic Living Learning Community (LLC), also known as “Mi Casa” offers students a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich culture, traditions, and lived experiences that form the foundation of Latinx/Hispanic identity.

In collaboration with the Latinx/Hispanic Advisory Council, the Center for Race, Ethnicity, and Diversity Education/El Centro, and Residence Life, this LLC promotes both academic exploration and co-curricular engagement, allowing residents to deepen their understanding of the diverse cultural and historical contributions of Latinx/Hispanic communities.

Open to all students, this LLC fosters a multicultural environment where curiosity,
understanding, and appreciation for Latinx/Hispanic heritage thrive. Through a
combination of academic study and experiential learning, students will not only
celebrate the diversity of Latinx/Hispanic cultures but also build a supportive cohort that enhances personal well-being and academic success.
