Living & Learning at Elon

In June, Kirsten Carrier, assistant dean of campus life and director of residence life, presented at the Campus Home. LIVE! conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, hosted by the Association of College and University Housing Officers - International (ACUHO-I).

Elon’s new EcoVillage Living-Learning Community offers a unique opportunity for students to deeply engage in sustainability practices.

In February and March all current students who intend to return to campus housing, in residence halls and apartments, need to APPLY (actively submit their Housing Application), MATCH (Roommate Match on Self-Service) and SELECT (participate in a Housing Selection process) to secure their housing for 2025-26.

The home designed and built by students, one of six constructed in the EcoVillage at Loy Farm’s first phase, involved more than 60 students over the course of an academic year and yielded lessons students will carry into their futures.

A collaborative stargazing night as part of Earth Week at Elon drew more than 80 attendees.

A contingent of faculty and staff leaders within the “Living and Learning at Elon” initiative attended the Residential College Symposium at Virginia Tech.

Elon continues to be the leader in the “Programs to Look For” feature as the only college or university in the country ranked in the top 20 in all eight categories of academic programs linked to student success and positive learning outcomes.

Twelve sustainably designed homes will become the Loy Farm Living-Learning Community, a model of green architecture where students thrive by living harmoniously with nature. The LLC will open in fall 2024 with all 12 homes completed by fall 2025.
