Living on your own brings excitement, freedom, responsibility, and sometimes challenges. You have been given a key to unlock any door of opportunity that you choose. With this key will come a greater deal of responsibility. You now live within a community that is comprised of students from various backgrounds and beliefs. Assisting you in learning to appreciate the background of each of your neighbors is a goal of the SPARC Program. Not only should you challenge yourself to greet each neighbor with an open-mind, you should also learn to greet situations openly as well. We will provide you with the information to make your own decisions, after that it will be up to you to weigh the outcomes and consequences for yourself. Please explore this page for ways to become a more aware community member.
