How the LCB Program Works

Five days of face to face community and six months of online community each semester

Face to face community

Students attend a five day residency (Sat - Wed) where they design their studies with the help of faculty mentors and fellow adult students. The residency is held at Sturbridge Host Hotel. Students live there in community for the week and:

participate in workshops work one on one with faculty mentors engage in study groups share academic work with fellow adult students create detailed study plans that outline the next six months of study

Online Community

When students leave residency and head home, they stay academically and socially connected through the Lesley University online community called MyLesley. Through MyLesley LCB students:

• use chat rooms to discuss study topics with fellow students and faculty mentors
• view resources such as bibliographies and academic publications
• link effortlessly to Lesley's Ludcke Library and other student services
• post work for feedback from community
• check in for a pep talk or any other academic support
