It's not too early to think about Black Graduation!

The Black Student Union is gearing up to host its 8th Annual Black Graduation to honor the accomplishments of our graduate and undergraduate students graduating this May. The ceremony will be held the evening of Tuesday, May 16, @ 6pm so mark your calendars!

An email from OMA will be going out this next week to invite participants to register for this important celebration.

Join Us for our First Interfaith Dialogue!

Do you take your faith seriously? Come join others and learn about the richness faith brings to other CWRU campus community members.

We want to 1) improve mutual understanding and learning from differences, while also 2) decreasing prejudice, 3) promoting social cohesion, and 4) developing a common sense of belonging between all those involved.

Nordson Leadership Scholarship

We’re looking for energetic students who thrive on innovation, change and questioning the status quo. We want to add diverse, high-caliber, students who are passionate about their areas of expertise and applying it to advanced manufacturing. While all eligible students are encouraged to apply, preference will be given to women & underrepresented minority students who are pursuing an undergrad degree in Business, Supply Chain, Accounting & Finance, Engineering, Economics, and Liberal Arts.
The $10,000 renewable scholarship provides exposure to Nordson career pathways. If selected, you will have opportunities at every step in your career – from the scholarship to support your education, to an internship focused on gaining real-life experience. For more information and to apply.

Submission Deadline: Weds, March 1

Help Us Decorate Eldred Before Grand Opening!

To help us make Eldred Hall into a cultural space for all students, we’re asking students to find artwork online that will represent their cultures. Please send us a link with the item(s) before Monday, March 6. The committee will consider all pieces before selecting and purchasing the final pieces.

In addition to the areas of the building reflecting the diversity of our campus community, we also have specific rooms that will reflect African American, Latine, Pacific Islander, & Native American/Indigenous communities.

Check out the Google slides of the spaces for wall colors and come visit yourself as Eldred is currently open (8am-10pm). Take some time to walk through the spaces and think about what kind of wall decor pieces could be representative of your community.
