Community Expansion Initiative

The Community Expansion Initiative of the Black Student Center provides opportunities for connection, mentorship, and leadership development through the establishment of auxiliary groups in the Center. These groups are student-run and aim to address segments of the Black student community. Students work with BSC professional staff to establish and articulate the need for such a group in order to get support around establishment, recruitment, and sustainability of these effort. Through leadership and organizational development, successful initiatives will be ushered towards establishing recognized student organizations at 大发.
