The Residential Leadership Community (RLC) is a theme housing leadership program in which students study leadership while living in a cohort environment. The RLC strives to incorporate the best practices from both philosophies of academia and student activities. The RLC teaches comprehensive historical and social leadership theories and strives to develop communication, time-management, organizational skills, and group skills specific to individual students’ majors and career goals through academic and experiential learning. The RLC is founded on a strong sense of purpose to build leaders that are socially responsible, educated in theory, demonstrate leadership accountability, and who grasp a deep understanding of effective leadership behaviors.  The mission of the Residential Leadership Community at Virginia Tech is to enhance students' leadership and interpersonal skills, enabling them to become more effective leaders in any organizational structure. The RLC is a collaborative program provided by the Agricultural and Extension Education Department and The Division of Student Affairs.
