- Demonstrate knowledge about world history, current events and global economics and sustainability.
- Acknowledge and respect the existence of different cultural values, beliefs and attitudes.
- Recognize that people are interconnected and globally interdependent.
- Communicate and collaborate effectively in a cross-cultural environment.
- Accept responsibility for active world citizenship.
Academic Resources
- Tutoring Services: Yulee Hall is located near the Broward Teaching Center offers free tutoring in a variety of subject areas: accounting, astronomy, biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, economics, mathematics, physics, and statistics courses. For more information click here.
- Academic advising: Academic advising will be available through an academic advisor from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The advisor is available on a walk-in basis to answer questions about majors within the CLAS and to offer resources for other general academic advising questions. Look for the advisor's hours posted in the Yulee residence area.
- Sustainability: The Department of Housing and Residence Education works with the Office of Sustainability to establish a Green campus. Sustainability means not using up our resources faster than they are replenished. It means environmental, economic, and social well-being. For more information, visit the Office of Sustainability website.
- Faculty-in-Residence:The Yulee Area is home to two faculty-in-residence. The Faculty-in-Residence Program is a structured program that promotes interaction between students and faculty through out-of-classroom experiences. The Faculty-in-Residence lives in a specially designed apartment within or adjacent to a residence hall so that the faculty member and his/her family can share the residence hall living experience with students.
