The International Residential College is a living and learning residence for undergraduate students seeking a global perspective. We work to build a healthy and responsive community that addresses the mind, body, and spirit of our students.

The mind of the community is enhanced through education and leadership programs. The body is addressed through programs like yoga, intramural sports teams and social programs such as hiking and random games of Frisbee. Additionally we routinely offer trips to local historic sites and cultural activities in Washington, D.C. The spirit of the community is felt through active discussions around relaxing evening meals, tea, and weekly breakfasts as well as social, educational and cultural awareness and undertaking various international educational initiatives. Every year since the IRC was established we have traveled with students internationally. Spain, Australia, Nicaragua, France and Greece provided us with different opportunities to mindfully explore art, culture, environment and social systems. More...
