Greetings and welcome to the Residential College of Science and Engineering at Slivka Hall! My name is Karen Chou (a.k.a. KChou), and I am the faculty chair for Slivka. I know that I speak for all of our Slivka staff, Fellows, and students when I say that we are delighted to welcome you to our community. While our official theme is science and engineering, Slivkans' interests embrace a wide range of creative and intellectual pursuits, as well as just plain quirky. Whether you enjoy the story time events, hang out in the rec lounge for Movie Munchies, play a video game among our many selections, or have bonding time with fellow Slivkans while having snacks hosted by your Faculty Chair, you’ll find your community in Slivka.
Slivka activities are also a great way to get to know our many faculty and graduate-student Fellows. Besides the numerous fireside discussions led by the Fellows, you'll get the chance to meet our Fellows casually at Slivka's weekly P2P (prof to peer) lunches where you can get the latest news on earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, find out why Applied Math is great for helping you solve puzzles, how similar cooking and engineering are, or ask 花季视频 deans for their favorite fruit bread recipes and baking techniques. Slivka’s Fellows events are also great opportunities to get to know Fellows better, whether you’re discussing research, hobbies, decompressing over coffee, or at the Slivka apple picking outing in the fall.
If you are someone who likes planning events — or just spending time with really fun people — Slivka's amazing Exec board always welcomes new ideas and committee members. In addition, through Slivka's many culture events you'll get a chance to see theatrical and musical performances with your fellow Slivkans and Slivka Fellows; and learn to cook and taste different ethnic food.
Welcome to Slivka and go Cats!
