Commuter Students
Commuter Student Organization
Commuter students can organize and advocate for their needs on campus. The Commuter Student Organization has also planned programs on and off campus, such as an All-Campus Halloween Party, as well as bringing speakers to campus.
Commuter students are an important part of the Lake Forest College family. We encourage them to engage in the life of the college and make connections across campus.
Commuter students need to fill out a Notification of Off-Campus Address form with the Dean of Students office; this ensures that we can contact you in an emergency.
Commuters can take advantage of many opportunities to be connected with residential students:
- Purchase an Aramark meal plan or flex dollars to eat in the cafeteria with residential students.
- Go to the Gates Center for a commuter key. This allows students into the residence halls for meetings, study sessions, etc.
- Store your books and other belongings in the commuter lounge, located on the lower level of the Mohr Student Center, near the Mailroom.
- Get involved with the myriad of organizations on campus, whether it is the Commuter Student Organization, Relay for Life, Pride, Ultimate Frisbee or Amnesty International.
- Become a Commuter Senator with Student Government.
Commuters are definitely an integral part of the Forester community!
