CULTURES, COMMUNITIES & INCLUSION
Supporting students across all campuses and preparing them to succeed in a diverse workforce is of paramount importance.
CCI supports the ways all students experience their own sense of their identities and how they interact with people who share their identities along with those who hold identities different from their own. Students may hold multiple identities that can include but are not limited to racial identities, ethnicities, gender and sexuality, faith and spirituality, nationality and citizenship, and other affiliations and communities of commonality, such as first-generation college students, adult and parenting students, military-connected students, and more. When students feel a sense of belonging and inclusion it can positively impact their retention, progress, graduation, future success in their chosen professions, and their contributions and service to their families and communities.
Georgia State University is a place for all, highlighting our common connections and intersections while upholding the free expression rights of each individual. Through shared experiences and engaged dialogue CCI helps students contribute to the marketplace of ideas.
The video above highlights the benefits of attending a university that strives to be #APlaceForAll. CCI strives to help every student to find a sense of belonging on our campuses.
Signature Heritage/History Months at Georgia State
What Are Heritage/History Months?
Heritage/History Months celebrate the customs, values, and traditions of different cultures, examining the issues and struggles of different communities as well as affirming their contributions to society. Heritage months are important in providing intentional space for teaching, learning and reflection. Each month, we celebrate the identities and histories of members of Georgia State’s global communities through vibrant performances, lectures, and activities that celebrate our rich cultural diversity and help us understand our shared history.
