Live and Learn Together

WiSE residential living communities are designed to help first-year students connect and build a community with other STEM students.

    Living on a WiSE floor helped connect me with people I saw both in passing and in my classes. It was easy to collaborate on homework, as I could walk down the hall and ask questions.
