International / Intercultural Learning & Living Community

Valuing intercultural understanding
The International/Intercultural Learning and Living Community is a group of approximately 44 students living together in Garden Apartments as part of an environment which supports and nurtures students’ international and intercultural interests. Residents participate in movie nights, international dinners and panel discussions with faculty members as they explore many different cultures.

As the global crossroads on campus, ILLC residents include students from across the country and around the world. The unique living experience offered in the ILLC challenges old stereotypes and creates new perceptions for all students involved.

Immerse yourself in a community that fosters students’ passion for international awareness in their own lives and brings that awareness to the rest of the University community.
