Teaching SMART (Science, Math And Research Technology) aims to increase awareness of, and access to, education in communities around the University of Minnesota. The program is based on a straightforward principle: elementary school students enjoy science and hands-on learning but may not have enough opportunities to do so during the average school day.
American Indian Cultural House
One of only a few such programs in the nation, the American Indian Cultural House, started in 2003, is a living learning community in partnership with American Indian Studies.
A distinguished living and learning community for University of Minnesota freshmen, designed to make the University smaller. The goal is to create a fun living and learning community for students interested in Chicano Studies based on what it's like to grow up or live as a Chicano/a or Latino/a in the US.
Lavender House is a Living & Learning Community within Comstock Hall for GLBT students, friends of GLBT students, students from GLBT families, and students who are queer, gender queer, or questioning.
