All Honors students who live in this LLC will be housed in Crandall Hall, a building entirely dedicated to the Honors Living Learning Community.
"I love living on the Honors floor...I love that I can chat with classmates as I'm cooking dinner in the kitchen, or get to know my neighbors better when seeing a play with the rest of the floor. The activities we do are really fun, like visiting the Global Market in Minneapolis, and it's very convenient to be able to talk about class with other students on the floor." - Taylor Harwood, Antonian Honors Student
