MHC Housing
For many MHC scholars and alumni, the community built through living in MHC-specific housing is one of their favorite aspects of their WKU journey. Within these residence halls, scholars are embraced by a community that encourages them to pursue their diverse academic and personal passions. Scholars like you connect with other scholars who are similar, but come from different walks of life and have different academic and personal passions, which is something that is unique to the MHC experience. You can go from studying with your friends in the hallways of Minton to nerf gun wars and potlucks. The housing offered through Minton Hall and Southwest Hall vibrantly reflects the cherished community of the MHC.
Residence Halls
This is the first-year residence hall for MHC Scholars. MHC Scholars who live here will be enrolled in the MHC LLC (more information below).
This is our residence hall for sophomores and above in The Mahurin Honors College.
Living Learning Community
In August 2021, The Mahurin Honors College officially partnered with Housing and Residence Life to create The Mahurin Honors College Living Learning Community. All MHC scholars who live in Minton will automatically be enrolled in this LLC moving forward.
What is an LLC?
In a WKU Living Learning Community (LLC), students with similar academic or social interests live together on a residence hall floor and participate in activities tailored to their specific majors or interests. LLCs are designed to help you connect socially, succeed academically, engage with WKU faculty, staff, and administrators, and chart your course at WKU.
