Housing
RLI Russian 001/002 students are strongly encouraged to reside in campus dorms during the summer. All participants are assigned a single room and have access to a student activities coordinator/resident dorm advisor. Rooms include a bed, desk, chair, dresser, window shade, and an air conditioner. Each student should bring their own linens, blankets, pillows, and towels. Laundry machines are located in the dormitories and are free to use. (Students who choose to reside off campus are responsible for arranging their own housing.)
Meals
All meals take place in one of the dining halls, where the College's award-winning dining service provides participants with breakfast, lunch, and dinner (Monday - Friday) and brunch and dinner (Saturday - Sunday). Students are encouraged to speak Russian during all meals. On weekdays, faculty join students at lunch to promote the fullest possible interaction in Russian. Students choosing to live off-campus are expected to eat lunch in the dining hall with their fellow participants Monday through Friday. A special lunches-only meal plan will be available for these commuting students.
Additional Resources
