Special Interest Houses Special Interest Houses are designed to provide a place where students can act on their ideas and interests along with their peers with similar goals. These houses are owned by the College and are located around the perimeter of campus. Students who share a common goal are encouraged to form a group, find an advisor, and finally submit an application in early February for the upcoming year.
