Student and Community Relations offers information about living in local neighborhoods, landlord/tenant issues, zoning, city ordinances, community involvement, and responsible party hosting. The office coordinates the Student Neighborhood Liaison program which hires student leaders to work in area neighborhoods to reduce livability issues. We accomplish this by partnering with neighborhood organizations and residents to bridge the gap between students and their neighbors and create opportunities for all to be engaged in the neighborhood.

I am roughly four weeks into my legal education, and I can say that it definitely has been a significant change from my undergraduate experience. MORE
