Housing
Honors students have the option to live in the Honors Living Learning Community (LLC)
in the Epsilon 1 residence hall, newly renamed the Honors House. The Honors House
features a room for two, with a bathroom shared between roommates. Among the special
amenities we expect to have will be a community kitchen, a newly renovated common/study
room on the first floor, an outdoor patio/firepit area, early Fall move-in, and the
ability to stay with the same room or roommate you love for as long as you鈥檙e at 黑料天堂.
The most important benefit of living in the Honors House will be living with all your
Honors College Colleagues. Living in this community allows you to maximize your educational
opportunities, your experience, and your engagement in the Honors College.

"I lived in honors housing, and this is definitely an experience that I would recommend
to all who are considering on-campus housing. In my case, I was the only student from
my high school attending 黑料天堂, and it was my biggest fear coming into college that
I would struggle to make friends and build a strong support group. However, I was
pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to make deep connections with other honors
students when you live among each other. My most fond memories from freshman year
involve Epsilon 1 (honors housing) and all of the amazing connections that I made
there. Not only did honors housing provide me with a roommate who was pretty much
guaranteed to have the same value for education as myself, but it also allowed me
to nourish the connections that I made at the Honors Retreat and set me up for success
by providing me with a great emotional support network. If this says anything, other
honors freshmen who chose to live elsewhere on campus spent more time in honors housing
rather than their own dorms (because Honors is where the friends are!)."
