The Diversity on Campus (DOC) exists to promote an awareness and understanding of different cultures on campus to promote an all-inclusive campus environment. We affirm the value and dignity of all human beings and strive to provide opportunities for students, faculty, administrators and staff. DOC seeks to support institutional excellence through initiatives which advance the University's Diversity and Strategic plans while fostering civility and respect for the value of all. Committed to a multidimensional approach, we have popular events to join different cultures together as one. We want to have a place for people to come to have fun, be themselves, and grow a better understanding of different cultural backgrounds. Two of our most popular events are The Martin Luther King, Jr. Convocation and Evening of Celebration. The Martin Luther King Jr. Convocation is an annual celebration and memorial of the efforts, spirit and wisdom of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This convocation is for the entire campus community. We join dynamic speakers as well as students to reinvigorate the dream of Dr. King. In addition, students and staff also participate in a service project co-sponsored with the Center for Community Service. Evening of Celebration is the culminating event for Black History Month. A soul food dinner is prepared by our award winning dining services while guests are entertained and inspired by students participating in the Diversity on Campus Organization. Of our many events D.O.C wants to bring all cultures on campus together as one.
