Abstract
In their fullest development, residential colleges have been associated primarily with British roots, and with the educational traditions of related cultures in the English-speaking world. Behind their success stands decades, or even centuries, of supportive institutional factors and cultural expectations. Currently, there are expanding efforts to found residential colleges in places without these traditions and their particular educational suppositions.
