The Panther Residential Experience
The Panther Residential Experience, or Panther XP for short, is University Housing's approach to help our residents learn and develop communities in the residence halls. Panther XP answers the question, "What do we want students to learn as a result of living in our residential communities?" Panther XP connects to our department’s mission and values. Each residential community will use a variety of strategies throughout the year to ensure we focus on enhancing student learning around our educational priorities: Life Skills, Personal Development, and Community Responsibility.
How to Get Involved
Looking for student involvement opportunities in University Housing? Consider running for the Community Council in your residence hall, joining the Residence Hall Association, gaining leadership skills by participating in Panther LEAP or building cultural competency in Panther Ambassadors for a Culturally Competent Campus. University Housing is a place to live and a community that helps you develop and grow.
Living-Learning Communities
If you’re looking for a more intimate housing experience where you’ll be paired with peers who share your passions and hobbies, consider joining one of our living-learning communities (LLCs).
