Who will
live in the Spanish House?
The Spanish Language faculty at Elon consider it an honor to
be selected to live in the Spanish House. Residents are
expected to make the Spanish House a special place. Spanish
must be the language most frequently spoken in the house, and
it should always be the language of communication at group
meals and at special events. Students must maintain a
constructive and positive attitude toward communication and
cross-cultural living and contribute to the academic goals of
the house. Students should maintain the cooperative and
understanding spirit of the house. Since Spanish will be the
primary language of communication, residents must have
completed SPN 310 by the time they live in the house. The
house is open to both men and women.
