Honors Residential Community:
When you decide to live in the Honors Residential Community at Kennesaw State, you are choosing to live in a community of dedicated scholars, just like yourself. The honors community, housed in the University Village 5000 building, is a collaborative effort between the Honors Program and the Department of Residence Life.
By residing in this themed living environment, students are able to live with others who thrive on an academically rigorous curriculum. While living together, residents are able to share similar experiences and rely on each other for academic and personal support. Both first-year and upper-class students are able to live in the Honors community.
In the Honors community, our residence halls are truly an extension of the classroom with a dedicated space to study and interact on each floor. In addition to the relationships you will make with your peers, Residence Life also provides a resident assistant to help you navigate Kennesaw State. KSU recognizes that not all growth takes place in a classroom setting and your RA will be there to assist you in your personal development and college endeavors.
F.Y.R.E. -
First-Year Residential Experience
The FYRE (First Year Residential Experience) program is
structured to create learning opportunities in the
residence halls allowing students to take full advantage
of the programs designed to promote a successful
transition. FYRE initiatives are unique to the
first-year experience at KSU and are designed to
complement the many services currently available to
these students at KSU. As a result, the FYRE program
will be implemented and evaluated on these learning
outcomes:
- Students will
develop an awareness of self as it relates to
interacting within a diverse residential community.
- Students will
acquire skills that support their development as
well-rounded, independent adults and engaged global
citizens.
- Students will
identify and develop skills that will support
academic achievement and degree attainment.
- Students will
demonstrate the knowledge and value of campus
resources, services, and opportunities by utilizing
them to aid in a successful transition to the campus
community.
