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 2009-10 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 2009-10 should complete the Theme Housing Application and submit it to the Office of Residence Life & Housing in Alabama Hall 104 by Monday, January 26 at 5 PM. Finalists will be selected to present a 20-minute presentation to the Theme Housing Selection Committee on the afternoon of Friday, January 30, 2009.
To qualify for theme housing, residents should:
• complete and submit a 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).
Please direct any questions to Dr. Andy Wilson, Assistant Dean for Campus Life & Director of Residence Life at andy.wilson@emory.edu or at 404.727.4144.
