ACTIVE LEARNING at Bowling Green State University takes place in our small group residential learning communities where students
with similar interests and goals live and study together. In academically based communities you work closely with outstanding
faculty members who teach classes and have offices right in the residence hall. With study partners next door and knowledgeable
faculty and staff easy to access, your academic success gets a jump start that can take you in many directions—research, study
abroad, leadership seminars, volunteering in urban schools, career exploration. Your university education KNOWS NO LIMITS.
