Housing for Honors students is available in the Honors Learning Community (HLC), in Harshman Dunbar. The Honors Learning Community
is an excellent option for Honors students. The HLC is available to all Honors students who sign up for it on the web. It
is also available to the roommates of Honors students (even if those roommates are not in the Honors Program). If you choose
to live with someone who is not in the Honors Program, you and your roommate must request each other as roommates when signing
up for housing.
The mission of the Honors Community is to create a seamless educational environment that supports the goals of the University
Honors Program. Members of the Honors Community pay $150 each semester to live in this interactive learning community.
In addition to direct access to Honors Program faculty and staff, membership in the Honors Community allows students to attend
and participate in fully-funded local and regional overnight trips to plays, museums, musicals, and community events. Likewise, community members receive free access to computers, wireless
access, meeting space, and books for use in common reading book discussions. Members of the Honors Learning Community also
have the opportunity to connect with the community through civic and service involvement opportunities and participate in
engaging discussions with faculty and nationally-recognized speakers.
Although recommended, it is not necessary to live in the Honors Learning Community to be a member of the University Honors Program
Currently, the HLC is located near the Student Recreation Center, th e football field, the library, intramural fields and student parking. All rooms are two-person rooms.
The atmosphere in the HLC is friendly, relaxed, supportive, respectful, and fun. Social, cultural, and intellectual events
are offered to enhance your BGSU and on campus living experiences. This creates a living learning community comprised of academically
talented students, staff, and faculty.
Living in the HC enriches the university experience for academically motivated students. It offers the best of the social
aspects of living with others in a community that understands and supports the attainment of academic excellence.
The Honors Program offices are located in the same residential quad, so in addition to the distinctive on-site academic and
social programming you receive, you will have easy access to the Honors Program faculty, advisors and staff.
