Fox News
The University of Nevada, Reno is offering students the ability to be a part of "living learning communities" (LLCs) that are based on shared interests in academics or certain racial or ethnic backgrounds.
"In the identity-based communities, for the safety of student participants, it is important only students who hold that identity are considered," said Dean Kennedy, executive director of residential life, housing and food services. The university told Fox News on Wednesday that Kennedy "misspoke" and that anyone could join the communities.More Related News
