You are encouraged to make connections with students from other cultures, from the U.S., and from other countries. This will add to your learning and, for those whose first language is not English, improve your English speaking and understanding. Get to know your neighbors living on campus and students in classes. An on-campus job can lead to connections with students and staff members. Join a club or student organization,  whether it is related to your major or for social purposes.

Campus Policies

It is important to be aware of and obey campus policies. You will receive a printed copy of the Viterbo student handbook, and policies may be found at  HERE.

Two important policies that apply to everyone are the alcohol policy and the smoking policy.

Alcohol Policy: In the U.S. individuals must be 21 years of age or older to consume alcohol. On campus, alcohol is allowed:

  • at on-campus functions sanctioned by the President’s Office, normally taking place in the Fine Arts Center or the Reinhart Center.
  • in on-campus apartments when all residents of the apartment are 21 years of age or older.

Smoking Policy: Smoking and use of e-cigarettes are not allowed anywhere on campus.

Global Connections Club

Global Connections Club is a student organization formed to promote and encourage an exchange of culture throughout the nations by providing opportunities for friendship, understanding, education, and the social interests of members. U.S. and international students are invited to participate.
