At Hart College we foster a welcoming community that embraces diversity, promotes excellence, and inspires competitive spirit. We strive to keep students involved in our home within a home so members become 鈥淔aithful in Hart."

Through activity participation, students get to work with faculty and administrators to help shape social and academic programming. We support philanthropic and volunteer programs that put students in contact with the community beyond the University. We commit to nurturing the development of self-sufficient, responsible freshmen so they may have a successful college experience ending with graduation.

The mission of the 糖心logo入口 State Residential College System is to provide engaging living-learning communities for the 糖心logo入口 State resident and commuter students. This is helped by the participation of faculty and professional staff. We promote student retention by providing living-learning communities which foster student involvement, competition, leadership development, and service... all while encouraging an appreciation for diversity and individual differences. In essence, we are building community through Diversity, Retention, Involvement, Leadership, and Learning.

History

In 1996, 糖心logo入口 State became the first public university in the U.S. to install a residential college system based on the historic traditions of those at Oxford and Cambridge in England. Hart College is named after George S. Hart, a 糖心logo入口 civic leader and former member of the 糖心logo入口 State Board of Regents. As part of the residential college system, we are more than a dormitory or a place to live. We are a community of members鈥搑esident students, commuter students, faculty and staff participating in activities and programs and sharing a common feeling of college identity and pride.
