The Women, Science,
and Technology Learning Community (WST Lrn C) is an innovative
joint venture of the Center for the Study of Women, Science, and
Technology (WST Center) and the
Georgia Tech Department of Housing. The WST Learning Community
enhances the academic and professional development of GT undergraduates
by creating networks for students and for student and faculty
interaction.
Modelled on residence
hall programs for women in science and engineering, the WST Lrn
C offers programs addressing personal and professional issues
for women students entering scientific and technological fields.
Female undergraduates from any major interested in the programs
of the WST Center are eligible to apply in spring for housing
in the WST Lrn C.
WST residence halls are located at the Stein House and the Goldin House on the 4th street & Techwood, and a few apartments on the Center Street. The 4th St. residents share a bathroom with one roommate. Each Center St. apartment houses four students assigned single rooms who share two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living room.
