Participating Houses
Residential Education believes that formal teaching, informal learning, and personal support are integral to a Stanford education. ResEd programs extend the classroom into the residences and complement the academic curriculum with activities and experiences that prepare students for a life of leadership, intellectual engagement, citizenship, and service.
More About Participating Houses
Toward that end, ResEd supports pre-assignment programs and themes in residence. Each house is responsible for crafting and managing an integrated residential learning experience for its residents. These houses enjoy a long history on campus, many coming into fruition concurrently with ResEd itself. Activities in University Theme Houses, whether academic or social, are related to that house's theme or focus area. Some are related to a cultural interest or affinity, while others are related to academic and career interests.
