Living Learning Communities Coordinator

Department Summary

Residential Life is a Student Affairs department located within On-Campus Housing. Residential Life works closely with Housing and Hospitality Services (HHS) to provide students with comfortable and convenient affordable housing and to enhance student opportunities for academic success, community building, personal growth, and leadership development.

Position Summary

Within Residential Life, the Academics & First Year Experience team focuses on enriching the residential academic experience and oversees the transition of all students into the University. Under the supervision of the Associate Director of Academics & First Year Experience, the Living Learning Communities (LLCs) Coordinator will oversee the development, oversight, and assessment of the Living Learning Communities Program to engage with students and to provide academic enrichment opportunities and activities throughout the residential communities and the greater UCLA campus. The Living Learning Communities Coordinator will supervise and develop onboarding and ongoing training for a team of 18 student interns helping to develop programming for each of the 14 LLCs. The LLC Coordinator will also often serve as the training and development representative for the unit for both professional and student staff. The LLC Coordinator will oversee large-scale events including but not limited to the LLC Welcome Reception, LLC Palooza, and LLC Meet 'n Greet. In this position, the LLC Coordinator will be responsible for communication to all 1600+ LLC residents and will foster and maintain integral campus partnerships with departments and Faculty to build networks of support and collaboration within and between the Living Learning Communities. The LLC Coordinator will coordinate the Bruin Day Student Experience Programs and will liaise with partners from Campus Life, UCLA Admission, and UCLA Events to support student organizations' Admit weekend programming. When needed the LLC Coordinator may be asked to support projects of the First Year Experience team including academic support and first-year transition initiatives such as True Bruin Welcome. Success in this role requires someone who can hold complexity; managing LLC communities, student interns, and cross-campus partnerships simultaneously while maintaining a student-centered focus. The coordinator must exercise sound judgment in ambiguous situations, adapt quickly to shifting institutional priorities, and bring creative problem-solving to both programmatic and operational challenges. This requires effective skills in planning, organization, coordination, resource allocation, delegation, and adaptability.
