The Black Scholars Community is dedicated to enriching the collegiate experiences of Black/African American students on this campus by providing our residents with academic, social, and cultural resources. We collaborate with campus departments and student organizations to help provide well-rounded support to our residents and get them connected to staff and faculty who look like them. We recognize the importance and value of building the bridge to ensure that our Black Scholars Community is connected to Black faculty and staff and with each other. We are invested and committed to cultivating a thriving community to support our Black scholars’ well-being and overall success. We are invested in each other’s success, strengthening our community, and empowering future leaders of change!
