Learning Communities and FIGs

Mizzou offers three types of living-learning experiences:

Learning Communities (LC) are larger communities of students located throughout the residence halls at MU. Every student living in an MU residence hall is part of either a Thematic Learning Community (TLC) or a General Learning Community (GLC) dedicated to supporting and enhancing the academic experience. The TLC and GLC pages have a lot more info about these communities that make up the heart of your living and learning experience in a residence hall.

Mizzou offers over 100 Freshman Interest Groups (FIGs), which can be defined as smaller communities within a larger Learning Community designed exclusively to help first-year college students get off to a great start. Check out the FIGs pages for more details!
