UNL "Best Kept Secret"
Are you a high school senior female planning to attend UNL next fall. One of the best kept secrets at UNL is Love Memorial Cooperative Residence Hall. Love is the only remaining all-female residence hall at the University and it provides a unique living experience at nearly half the cost of traditional housing options. Love Hall is UNIQUE becuase it is a cooperative, which means that all residents earn a "scholarship" by spending 4-6 hours a week on leadership activities, cooking, or contributing to the upkeep of the hall. Students save $3200 a year compared to traditional residence halls.

Citizenship Washington Focus
Citizenship Washington Focus(CWF) is an intensive, six-day program for high school students between the ages of 14 and 18. The program spans the course of seven weeks during the summer. Each week, delegates from across the country travel to the Nationsl 4-H Youth Conference Center in Chevy Chase, Maryland. From the moment delegates step off the bus, they are immersed in every aspect of becoming better citizens as they enjoy the rich history of our nation's capital. The key to our success is the dedication of our staff. Each year, we bring in Program Assistants from across the country to lead workshops, provide commentary during trips to and from Washington, and serve as role models for the delegates. PA's are college-age students who have most likely attended CWF in the past and loved it so much they wanted to come back. For more information, please contact the Clay County Extension office at 762-3644.
