Service for Justice Residential College

The Service for Justice Residential College, housed in 42 Langguth Hall, is a community rooted in social justice and service that explores the questions of identity development, positive sense of self and social responsibility. Through reflective exercises students are asked to intentionally examine their own personal identities and culture based on their living and learning experiences. By intentionally examining social justice issues, students explore how they are called to become change agents. Through reflection, action and service, students are challenged to see how they can use their privileges to help those who are oppressed.
