Introducing a new Residential Learning Community: La Casa!

La Casa, featuring Vecinos and Amici, is a language learning community for students who want to practice and expand their knowledge of Spanish & Italian languages and culture. 

Both heritage and non-native speakers are encouraged to participate in this community. Any student who enjoys experiencing and learning more about Spanish and Italian customs and cultures will find La Casa a great opportunity!

Special features of this community include: Language Immersion Hours, Karaoke, Trips to Museums/Shows, Dance Nights, Cultural Dinners, Language Dinners, Game Nights, Films, and opportunities to interact with language faculty.

La Casa is located on the first floor of Terrace 5 and is open to all upper-year students (Sophomores – Seniors). For more information, please visit  https://www.ithaca.edu/reslife/guide/specialty/.  We would love your support as we create this awesome living and learning community – please spread the word to friends and classmates who may have an interest!

To apply, please complete the La Casa application on HomerConnect by March 7th.  Residential Life will approve applications on March 9th and by March 10th at 7am, students approved to live in a Residential Learning Community (RLC) will be able to select their housing for 2016-2017. For sophomore applicants, this means selecting housing before the typical summer sophomore selection process.
