Cornelia Strong College is a residential college at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Strong College is open to all undergraduates in the University regardless of major, as well as to a small number of graduate students, and is particularly suited to students who are seeking a family-like environment and a richer academic experience than they might have in a traditional residence hall. Strong College students take the usual complement of courses throughout the University, and they may also participate in a variety of co-curricular activities within the College, including discussion groups, a weekly tea hosted by the faculty Fellows, and social events throughout the year. More information about Strong College is available from the Strong College Office, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Greensboro, North Carolina 27402, U.S.A., or from the Strong College Web Server.
