Livin g G reen Trying to live green? This learning community is for students who have an interest in environmental protection and sustainability and wish to support that cause by living in an environmentally responsible community. This community is housed in Frank residence hall, which is Gold速 certified by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program. Students in this community initiate and participate in activities that promote green living on campus and in the surrounding community.

Ou tdo o r Do you enjoy outdoor adventures such as hiking, rafting, rock-climbing, camping, and canoeing? The Outdoor community is designed for students who are interested in developing and refining their outdoor leadership skills, exploring career opportunities in outdoor recreation, and want to be part of an interactive, funfilled community. Students in this community take two classes together, spend four days in the woods together, and live on the same floor. This combination allows students the opportunity to create lifelong friendships and plug in to the Appalachian family. No previous experience is required; only a desire to participate, learn, and grow! Be prepared to have fun, make friends and explore one of the best parts of Appalachian State University, the Blue Ridge Mountains. *Members of the Outdoor community must pay ($240) for and attend the First Accent trip, which will be held during the three days before students move into the residence halls.
