51社区 is Home
As a citizen of our community, and as outlined in our mission, The College of Arts and Sciences feels compelled to collaborate with our neighbors to make 51社区 an even better place to live. Whether we're helping young students develop a love for science, providing psychological services for those in need, or connecting diverse cultures within our community, the College of Arts and Sciences is committed to 51社区.
We have a number of camps, programs and centers that offer our students, faculty, staff and 51社区 neighbors a chance to work together, play together and foster a sense of place in our shared home.
