From Expectations to Experiences: Using a Structural Typology to Understand First-Year Student Outcomes in Academically Based Living-Learning Communities
This longitudinal study investigated to what extent noncognitive variables (e.g., expectations for college) and the college environment (i.e., academically based living-learning communities) influence students\u27 college experience. This research goes beyond grouping all living-learning students into one category, which has dominated much of the literature, by using an empirically derived structural typology for living-learning communities (Inkelas, Longerbeam, Leonard, & Soldner, 2005). Results suggest that being a student in a collaborative living-learning community is more likely to predict greater peer academic interactions and an enriching educational environment. Implications for practice and future research are discussed

Enhancing Undergraduate Education: Examining Faculty Experiences During Their First Year in a Residential College and Exploring the Implications for Student Affairs Professionals
The article discusses the results of a study on the experiences and insights of faculty members in a new residential college. The researchers used a constructivist, case study method to determine how faculty made meaning of their experiences in a residential college at a major, land-grant research university in the Midwest U.S. The findings of the study indicate that the residential college environment did not ameliorate the time pressures experienced by faculty
Exploring Living-Learning Communities as a Venue for Men’s Identity Construction.
THIS QUALITATIVE STUDY EXPLORED how male undergraduate students experienced living-learning community environments. Findings revealed that living-learning communities provided men a safe haven from rigid gender role expectations, offered a plethora of involvement opportunities, and fostered relationships with faculty and peers. The findings highlight the potential of living-learning communities to provide men with the support they need to reject rigid gender expectations and develop a healthy identity. Recommendations for practice are discussed

Exploring Students\u27 Perceptions of Academically Based Living-Learning Communities
This qualitative study employed focus group interviews to explore students\u27 perceptions of three well established academically based living-learning communities at a large, land-grant university in the Midwest. Three themes emerged that illustrated students\u27 perceptions of a culture that promoted seamless learning, a scholarly environment, and an ethos of relatedness among faculty, staff, and peers. Implications for practice and future research are discussed
