Black History Month Celebration

February 24, 2017 by Office

Black History Month

I would like to celebrate and congratulate all of our students who contributed, ran and performed at today’s Black History Month Community Dialogue. It was a beautiful event, with incredible performances all centered around the theme of connecting the past to the present.

I would especially like to celebrate all of our Black Student Union members! Your guidance for this Community Dialogue, as well as your planning and execution of advisory lessons for the past three weeks was incredible. Students, you have once again shown us how much you can take on to shape the wonderful culture here at DVC!
