The Collegia Program
Coming changes for Fall, 2009
Graduate and non-traditional student Collegium Community moves to the McGoldrick Collegium
The graduate and non-traditional student Collegium Community will have a new home in the McGoldrick Collegium on the first floor (#140) of the Hunthausen building beginning fall, 2009. The McGoldrick Collegium features a fireplace, outdoor patio and easy access to restaurants on 12th Ave such as The Chatterbox Café (perfect for some bubble tea), Café Presse (for some yummy French cuisine) and Stumptown (for a quality cup of java). Hours will be 7am-8pm Monday – Thursday, and 7am-4pm on Fridays.
McNulty Collegium Community moves to the Reidy Collegium
Juniors and seniors with an academic focus in Engineering, Science and Nursing will now have their “home away from home” in the Reidy Collegium on the 3rd floor (#310) of the Student Center. The Reidy Collegium features a fireplace, wonderful views of Mt. Rainier and easy access to the lockers and food service in the Student Center. Hours will be 7am-5pm Monday – Thursday, and 7am-4pm on Fridays.
About the Collegia Program
The three-time national award winning Collegia spaces offer home-like environments in which commuter and transfer students can renew themselves between classes, meet with classmates and faculty in a relaxed setting, have conversations with friends, enjoy a snack or join in a special activity. The warm and attractive Collegia environments include small kitchens, comfortable sofas and reading lamps, study tables, computers, printers, newspapers, books, and access to snacks from an honor bar.
Each Collegium is continuously staffed by undergraduate and graduate students who provide a welcoming presence to students and serve as a resource for them. Occasional special events such as barbecues, pancake breakfasts, career counseling nights, and wellness demonstrations bring the community together and help establish relationships. The focus, however, is less on "doing" and more on "being," allowing the community to develop organically at a pace and depth that is authentic and meaningful for students.
