Campus Living

Gustavus believes there is great value in being a residential college, recognizing a significant part of a student's learning is gained outside the classroom. Living within a community of peers, interacting with a variety of individuals, learning from one another, assuming individual and group responsibilities, developing interpersonal skills, and pursuing lifelong friendships are all a part of being a residential college.
