The Cross-Cultural Center (CCC) promotes multicultural awareness and educational programming for the Assumption community to support and complement the University’s commitment and mission for diversity. The Center serves as a resource for students, staff and faculty, and is an inclusive and safe space for students to come and explore their identities and learn about other races, cultures, and religions. The Cross-Cultural Center staff supports, advises, and advocates for Assumption’s ALANA (African, Latino/Hispanic, Asian, and Native-American) student population and supports first-generation students as they transition to and through their University experience. The Center staff work in partnership with faculty and staff to develop programs that enhance cross-cultural understanding and emphasize human dignity, solidarity, and the importance of working for justice for all people.
