Global Honors Living-Learning Community
This community is open to international students and/or Honors students interested living together in an international village in the Fountains Residence Hall.
Honors students: If you are interested in studying abroad and want to meet international students here at UNF, or you can’t study abroad and would like to experience some cultural exchange, OR you want to live with other Honors students, this living-learning community is for YOU!
International students: If you want to really get to know some American students as well as our international community, this community is for you!
There is no required class. The community will be built through social activities, sharing cultures (especially through food!) and working together on community service projects. Students living in this community will attend events like potluck dinners featuring a variety of different food traditions, field trips to explore cultural and environmental treasures in the area, shopping trips to ethnic stores, game nights, pool parties, and other events all with a mix of other Honors students and students studying at UNF from around the world.
This is an opportunity for cultural exchange and friendship between international students and American students. Come learn about our global village!
