The Cross-Cultural Center (CCC) is dedicated to supporting the needs of historically underrepresented ethnic students, staff, and faculty. These groups have been traditionally represented by the following campus organizations: Afrikan Student Union, Alyansa ng Mga Kababayan, American Indian Student Association, Asian Pacific Student Association, and Moviemiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan. The mission of the CCC is to provide a network of support services which support the personal, social, cultural, and academic well-being of ethnic minority students on campus, and to promote the education and celebration of issues related to the development of a multi-ethnic/ multi-cultural campus community. The CCC is committed to the promotion of and respect of cultural diversity, and asks that all who utilize the Center to respect the facility as a "home" and have a commitment to sponsoring programs and activities which support this mission.
