University of Northern Iowa is more than doubling the number of non-academic Living Learning Communities available to incoming freshmen and transfer students who are now submitting their housing and dining contracts. Springboard (freshmen only) and upperclass (sophomores, juniors and seniors) learning communities are being expanded for fall 2013. Learning communities for wellness, transfer students and second-year students are being added to current options. Students in these communities benefit from programming that is specific to their area of interest or age.
