In addition to our residence hall spaces and learning communities, there are affinity community options within University Housing. These communities bring together students with shared backgrounds or interests/affinities without the academic elements of learning communities.
Essence
A living experience focused on supporting students who self-identify within the Black diaspora, designed around allowing Black/African-American students to feel comfortable to be their authentic selves.
Gender Inclusive Community
The Gender Inclusive Community is intended to meet the needs of transgender, gender non-conforming, nonbinary, and LGBTQ+ students and allies to select a housing assignment that is inclusive, safe, and comfortable.
