Diversity Celebration
The Diversity Celebration provides a venue where diverse perspectives, cultures and values are accepted, appreciated and celebrated. The event also supports and enhances the university’s commitment to be actively involved in addressing the educational, economic, cultural and societal needs of the changing region, state, nation and world.
Location Update
Due to inclement weather, the Diversity Celebration Festival on April 7th has been moved indoors to the Plemmons Student Union International Hallway.
