Co-Curricular Events

Every semester all the Living Learning Communities from every college get together for fun events outside of the classroom! This week we attended the Women's Basketball Game but we met beforehand for snacks & water, and giveaways!

This picture includes the LLC students from all colleges who were able to make the game, along with the Advisors from different colleges. 

The Living Learning Community presents a unique opportunity for students to connect with other like-minded students in the classroom and out of the classroom- like these co-curricular events! This recent co-curricular event to the Women's Basketball Game was a fun outing just like in the fall semester!

Below is a picture of LLC students from the Health Professions Collaborative participating in the October HeartChase event in order to raise money and awareness for heart health. 

The three students on the right are in the LLC, and they brought their friend, the student on the left, for fun!

The HeartChase event consisted of running all around campus and the community completing challenges and obstacles with your team. It was so fun!

An Evening of Science and Technology for our Health Professionals

The Health Professions Collaborative LLC shared an evening of science and it's role in the various health professions. Topics discussed included innovations in technology for monitoring, treating, and adapting to illnesses and conditions.  In addition, the global impact of the recent Ebola outbreak in Liberia, West Africa was discussed.

The evening included discussions, videos and experiences related to science and technology in the various health professions. Content addressed went beyond typical classroom course content. 

LLC Students Participate in Holiday Festivities

Last week the (Health Professions Collaborative) HPC-LLC joined some other student organizations within the college for some holiday festivities. It allowed members of these student organizations to integrate and meet new people. Not only was there food, food and more food, but there were philanthropy donations, door prizes, games, and holiday activities.

Here in this picture is the holiday "stained glass" station. Students colored for relaxation (which they loved!) and then made their pictures into stained glass lookalikes.

Towards the end of the evening after the ornament exchange, it was picture time! Here is a picture of current and past HPC-LLC members who attended the holiday party- plus the two current advisors.

Fall 2014 Semester- from Orientation to Finals

There is only one month left until finals week and the Living Learning Communities have been busy this semester! It's hard to believe that it was only three short months ago we were all meeting each other during our Orientation:

This is the Health Professions Collaborative (HPC) LLC participating in an ice breaker activity with Co-Advisor, Laura Kruger. 

This semester has been busy! All the LLC groups meet monthly, host academic learning events, and social events too! We are all already planning for the spring semester. It will be lots of fun. Stay tuned, we will be sharing more of our fun activities soon!
