Snyder Hall

The Educational Equity Scholars Living Learning community (LLC) welcomes first-year students who are committed to engage with peers from various backgrounds, perspectives, and identities. Through experiential learning programs that help students transition to college and build a strong academic foundation, we aim to foster a sense of belonging, purpose, and joy for all our residents. In addition to the LiveOn experience, LLC members are encouraged to enroll in the Educational Equity Scholarship and Community Seminar in the fall and spring semesters and engage with their mentors in the Office of Scholars Programs (OSP) and the various colleges. The LLC houses all first-year scholarship recipients through OSP, which includes Button Waller Fellows, Lenfest Scholars, Maguire Scholars, and Milton Hershey Scholars, as well as students who elect to join this vibrant community which engages in frequent team building activities, social events, and relevant programs to meet students' needs. The LLC features a live-in undergraduate Program Assistant who is a former resident of the LLC and serves as a mentor and resource to scholars during this important transitional year.
