Center for Student Diversity

Student Diversity Council

Purpose

The purpose of the Student Diversity Council (SDC) is to build relationships among student leaders, encourage cultural groups to collaborate, enhance the student leadership experience, improve programs, and build community.

In addition, the SDC is designed to inform the Assistant Vice President (AVP) for Diversity and the university administration of the needs of under-represented groups, the challenges currently facing these groups, and the programming and resources necessary to enhance the intellectual and social life of under-represented students.

SDC members meet with the AVP on a regular basis. The group currently comprises representatives from the African Diaspora Club, Caribbean Student Association, Filipino Student Association, Hillel,  International Student Association, Latin American Student Organization, Muslim Student Association, South Asia Student Association, the Black Student Union, Queer Student Union, and the IMPACT Movement.  An organization president may serve on SDC or nominate the vice president or an exec member of that organization to represent the group on the council.
