Theme Housing at Emory
Theme Housing consists of intentionally designed living experiences centered around a variety of academic, cultural, organizational, and personal interests. Theme Housing at Emory is another way students can be involved in living and learning in a residential environment. In order to participate in theme housing you can either apply to one of the current themes that will be returning next semester or you and your friends can create a new theme.
Theme halls returning for the 2010-11 academic year include:
BASE (Bridging Academics, Science, and Ethics at Emory)
CIL (Center for International Living)
BSA House (Black Student Alliance)
OEO House (Outdoor Emory Organization / Asbury House)
Students wishing to create their own theme hall for 2011-12 should complete the Theme Housing Application and submit it to the Office of Residence Life & Housing in Alabama Hall 104 by Tuesday, February 1, 2011 at 5 PM. Finalists will be selected to present a 20-minute presentation to the Theme Housing Selection Committee on Wednesday, February 9, 2011.
To qualify for theme housing, residents should:
•complete and submit a Housing Application online (for each resident);
•submit a signed Housing Agreement (for each resident);
• select one student as the "Theme Housing Coordinator";
• secure a faculty or staff advisor;
• and submit a complete Theme Housing Application (download here).
