The houses are made up of undergraduate residents. Two of our Undergraduate Theme Houses are housed in Haselton Hall (Art House & Spirituality House) and three are located in Eberhardt Hall (La Casa Latina, Wakanda & WoCo). Each Theme House contains its own distinct community that programs for the campus on a regular basis.
Each Undergraduate Theme House has a House Assistant (HA). Their role is to build community, be a resource to house members, and serve as a liaison to Residence Life and their faculty/staff advisor.
All Theme Houses have a faculty/staff advisor. This position allows for contextual learning to occur outside of the classroom as the faculty adviser may serve as a facilitator to house members. The Faculty Advisor also serves as a consultant on topics of interest to the house, and as a resource to help house members plan programs based on the House’s theme.

La Casa Latina — HA Kassel Franco Garibay
WoCo: A Feminist House – HA Anna Gombert
Wakanda House – HA Kiera Husbands

Roommates and Room Assignments
In creating these environments, studies and experience show that intact cohort communities create the optimal environment for the best experience. As such, roommates are members of the same Theme House. Students must live in the Theme House to be a member of this group. Assignments are made via our Residence Life & Housing Office with the Theme House.
