Why do students live in apartments rather than in dorms?
The goal of College Living Experience is to prepare students for independent adulthood. For this reason, students live in apartments so they can learn to shop for groceries, cook, clean and manage basic maintenance such as unclogging a sink. Under the direction of an independent living skills coordinator, students gain experience and confidence in accepting responsibility for tasks of daily living. Equally important, CLE students receive the social benefits of sharing living space, responsibilities, interaction and friendship with a roommate.
