Housing
Honors students have the option to live in the Honors Living Learning Community (LLC)
in the Epsilon 1 residence hall. The Honors LLC features a room for two, with a bathroom
shared between roommates. Among the special amenities there is a community kitchen,
a renovated common/study room, early Fall move-in for freshmen, and the ability to
stay with the same room or roommate you love for as long as you’re at South. The most
important benefit of living here will be living with all your Honors College colleagues.
Living in this community allows you to maximize your educational opportunities, your
experience, and your engagement in the Honors College.

"I lived in the honors LLC, and this is definitely an experience that I would recommend
to all who are considering on-campus housing. In my case, I was the only student from
my high school attending South, and it was my biggest fear coming into college that
I would struggle to make friends and build a strong support group. However, I was
pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to make deep connections with other honors
students when you live among each other. My most fond memories from freshman year
involve Epsilon 1 and all of the amazing connections that I made there. Not only did
honors housing provide me with a roommate who was pretty much guaranteed to have the
same value for education as myself, but it also allowed me to nourish the connections
that I made at the Honors Retreat and set me up for success by providing me with a
great emotional support network. If this says anything, other honors freshmen who
chose to live elsewhere on campus spent more time in honors housing rather than their
own dorms (because Honors is where the friends are!)."
