Student life is a large part of life at any institution of higher education, and creating a sense of community is often at the forefront of faculty, administrator, and staff planning. Living/learning communities are a new way to keep students engaged socially and academically, and grow a sense of community on campus. Paul Wuennenberg, principal at KWK Architects, and Jill Stratton, associate dean of Undergraduate Residential Learning at Washington University in St. Louis, MO, are at the forefront of these new campus communities and shared some of their insights with us.
