The Cultural Resource Centers create a student-centered inclusive environment that enriches the university experience. We honor diversity, explore social justice issues, celebrate cultural traditions, and foster student identities, success and leadership. The Cultural Resource Centers Leadership Team is comprised of three student-centered entities that promote professional development, leadership advancement and cultural awareness. All students are welcome, not just those who identify as students of color. Programs include Open Forums, Multicultural Graduation, Honor Day, Roots Festival, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Tribute Week, and Open Houses. Our centers also function as venues for student-centered events and other programming facilitated by campus and outside community members.
