Communication and Exploration
The Communication and Exploration Living Learning Community (CEC) introduces students to new people, places, and events on campus and around Boise. It offers a space to create connections and build academic pathways toward a degree. Everyone’s journey is different, and CEC helps students shape their own first-year experience.
Located in Sawtooth Hall
Why You Should Apply
A built-in support system simplifies the transition into college life. Students learn from each other and from resources, opportunities, and activities provided by CEC to decide on options that work best for them. Whether considering a change in one’s major, adding a minor, or finding the right classes, CEC is there to help.
All majors are welcome (including undecided).
Community Events
Students engage in extra-curricular events that support their interests. Off-campus events include heading downtown for food, floating the Boise river, or taking selfies on the greenbelt. Community service events include making blankets for the animal shelter, supporting the campus Food Pantry, or volunteering at the Boise library’s book sale.
Curriculum
CEC is all about looking at options – students play an active role in class and collaborate with others to study communication’s impact on society and their lives. The course helps build confidence in sharing ideas and creating compelling narratives so that students feel empowered to navigate their own paths through college, career, and life.
