Second Year Living Community (2YLC)
What is the Second Year Living Community?
Research suggests that second-year students are likely to be more successful socially and academically when they are more active in the campus community. The 2YLC program helps residents develop community and build relationships with peers by encouraging them to engage in programs, events, and experiences that are specifically targeted to their goals.
For the 2024-2025 academic year, 2YLC will be housed within the entirety of Lauterbur Hall.
