Integrated and intentional communities in Mathias and Slocum Halls that explore a theme through experiential engagement & civic skill development

CAMPUS LIVING THAT REFLECTS YOUR INTERESTS

Colorado College offers four Living Learning Community (LLC) options in Mathias Hall as well as a Special Interest Community (SIC) located in Slocum Hall. Each community is advised by a student Community Assistant and staff Program Coordinator from various offices on campus. The communities meet regularly over dinner to discuss the theme and engage in outreach with the local community or organize applicable campus projects or programs. It’s living AND learning about topics that you’re passionate about. 

A VARIETY OF THEME OPTIONS

Choose from Local Living and Learning, Global, Spirit of Non-Violence, and Arts for Social Change LLC themes as well as an Outdoor Education SIC. Review the information sheets for an overview of each theme, program components, and student expectations:

NEW UNIQUE SPACES FOR COMMUNITIES

During the summer of 2010, Mathias was renovated and received upgraded lobby and common space and more study lounges. We also had the opportunity to rethink four wings for the expanded LLC program. These spaces include shared kitchens and lounges for thematic programming and community-based living.  The summer of 2013 will bring exciting renovations to Slocum Hall, creating a special interest community space in that hall.  This community will also include a shared kitchen and lounge to enhance residents' ability to gather, plan, and share.  

If you are interested in exploring a theme with peers who share your passions in an integrated and intentional community, these are for you!
