Criminal Justice Living Learning Community
The mission, vision and goals of the Criminal Justice LLC include the desire to establish a connection to the University of New Haven by providing students with positive faculty/staff interactions and engagement in curricular and co-curricular activities, to establish a strong residential community among residents where events and activities develop a strong sense of community spirit while supporting its values, and to develop a strong foundation for continued success in college during the first-year experience.
The Criminal Justice LLC seeks to provide opportunities for students, faculty, and staff to engaged each other beyond the classroom and residence hall community and to help students establish meaningful relationships within their residential community which are expounded upon in the classroom. Furthermore, the faculty of the Criminal Justice LLC facilitate the growth of critical and imaginative thinking among students by having them put into practice the theories and methods learned in the classroom in a community which is characterized by intellectual and ethical curiosity.
The Criminal Justice LLC regularly takes trips to accomplish these goals. Past trips include visiting Eastern State Prison, Washington DC, and going zip-lining.
