Immanuel & Warrior Theme Houses
Waldorf College has two Theme Houses for upperclass students. The Immanuel Theme House is named for Immanuel Lutheran Church and the Warrior Theme House is named in the spirit of Waldorf.
The theme house program provides a unique opportunity that is designed to bring students together who share a common area of interest and to provide a richer living and learning environment; thereby creating their own residential experience in a non-traditional residential environment. Students select a theme, apply and when selected, they execute programs throughout the year around that theme. Each Theme House has a faculty or staff advisor who helps focus the residents on the house's theme to broaden and enhance the educational experience outside of the classroom. This housing option provides a home atmosphere whereby the houses are fully furnished and provides amenities one would enjoy in a home atmosphere. |
