生活学习社区
Roger Williams University began offering 生活学习社区 (LLCs) more than fifteen years ago, when the University 荣誉项目 chose to include a living component to accompany the overall honors experience. 从那时起, 这所大学接待了许多类型的生活, ranging from major-based to special interest 和 affinity based spaces. We believe that 生活学习社区 are an integral piece of the RWU education, 尤其是对我们即将网赌的十大网站的学生.
