Lloyd Hall Scholars Program

Created in 1962 as the "Pilot Program," the Lloyd Hall Scholars Program is the oldest of the living-learning programs at the University of Michigan. Centered in the Alice Crocker Lloyd Residence Hall, the Program offers entering students a collegial, interdisciplinary, academic environment in which they can enjoy the personal and intellectual advantages of a small group setting while they explore the resources of the larger University. A number of LS&A courses are taught in Alice Lloyd, usually by instructors who themselves live in the residence hall. Sound academic counseling and a strong range of co-curricular activities are also offered.

In addition, the Program offers reserved spaces in sections of LS&A introductory and sophomore-level courses taught elsewhere on campus; innovative mini-courses taught in Alice Lloyd; and opportunities for independent study.

As part of the Residence Education program in Alice Lloyd Hall, the Lloyd Hall Scholars Program has access to numerous non-academic activities, including films, field trips, entertainment, ethnic awareness programs, and social programs. Within LHSP, a leadership track for a smaller number of sophomores also exists.

The Program's writing course for entering students, LHSP 125, meets the LS&A Introductory Composition Requirement for first-year students. About ten sections of LHSP 125 are offered in fall term and a number are offered in winter term as well. This course, while emphasizing writing, focuses on a variety of diverse topics and themes drawn from the various disciplines of the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. Elective courses offered through LHSP range from mini-courses to seminars. All LHSP courses are small, and active participation by students is encouraged.

Approximately 280 first-year students are admitted to the Program each year, more than 60% from out-of-state. Inquiries should be addressed to the Director, Lloyd Hall Scholars Program, 100 South Observatory, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-2025.

Lloyd Scholars Program Courses. A total of 20 credits of LHSP courses may be counted toward the minimum 120 credits required for an LS&A degree.
