Yes

A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:

First year students at Emory have the opportunity to participate in the Living-Learning Communities as part of Emory’s First Year at Emory experience, run by the Office of Residence Life and Housing. There are three Living-Learning Communities: "Citizenship: Your Passport to Emory", "Living Green: Sustainability in the 21st Century", and "Global Cultures: Bringing the World to Emory". While the "Living Green" program is the one most directly focused on sustainability, each of these experiences incorporates aspects of sustainability, equity, and social justice into hall programming, required freshman seminars and the overall residence hall atmosphere.
