College of Arts and Communication Learning Communities

Are you a music major? If so, I-IV-V-I is the Learning Community for you!

Music majors will be automatically signed up for this community that takes courses together, and lives in Lee Hall.  Students in this community live in Lee Hall. Students will be enrolled into a section of New Student Seminar that is exclusively for Music students, as well as a dedicated World of the Arts class taught by a faculty member in the College of Arts and Communication. World of the Arts is a course music students need to fulfill pre-requisites for future courses in the music department, and is a required course for graduation. Joining this group will assure music majors a section of New Student Seminar and World of the Arts with like minded students.
