I understand the draw of being housed with folks with shared interests, but are there any other benefits and/or cons to going into a Learning Community as a Freshman? (i.e. Discover San Diego State, or Journey into Entrepreneurship)
I am not an introvert, but will be 2500+ miles away from home.
My son was in the Emerging Leaders LC (not his first choice) but found making friends much easier since all were required to take some courses together so you spend a lot of time with the LC group. It is a good way of finding your “tribe” and forging new friendships especially since you will be coming from long distance.
