About
Gonzaga’s Jesuit, Catholic, Humanistic education will challenge and inspire you.
Living-Learning Community Cord Goals:
Students in living-learning communities (LLCs) at Gonzaga have the unique opportunity to earn an LLC graduation cord by actively participating in living-learning community events and by reflecting on their experience at the end of the academic year. The requirements to earn a graduation cord include:
- Attending the fall Living-Learning Community Orientation event (1st-year students only).
- Participating in at least three programs hosted by a Community Assistant (CA).
- Participate in at least one (1) LLC-sponsored excursion or attend an LLC Signature Event.
- If a student attends more than 1 Excursion, the 2nd and additional Excursions may count toward Active Programs
LLC residents must check-in to each program or excursion they attend. Students can verify with their CA that their participation was tracked.
Students who depart from an event early or are disruptive during an event will not receive credit for attending that event.
Graduation cords will be disseminated to students at the end of the year in which they earn them. Additional cords will not be available to students who fail to collect or who lose their graduation cords.
Special Considerations:
Campus Partner Retreats
Daylong or overnight retreats hosted by any campus partner are considered one program.
Outdoor Pursuits Programmer Excursions
Students in Marian Hall have additional opportunities to attend programs hosted by Outdoor Pursuits Programmers in their halls. These programs count towards LLC cord goals just like a CA program.
