d i S a B i l i T Y T a S k F o R c e Formed in September 2013 as part of a campuswide initiative to re-frame disability as a facet of diversity that enriches our community, the task force is working to shape and shift disability perspectives. c o R n e l W e S T V i S i T "You can't talk about the black freedom movement of the 1850s, the 1890s, the 1960s or today without talking about the ways in which it unhouses us and it unnerves us. It challenges us at the deepest levels," began Dr. Cornel West in a provocative, hour-long address to a packed Mayo Concert Hall audience on February 20, 2013. West's appearance was a highlight of Black History Month programming on campus, which also included a February 25 lecture on "Rap, Race, and Reality" by Chuck D, leader of the legendary rap group public enemy. u n i T Y W e e k tCnJ celebrated the diversity of its community through food from March 31 to April 4. Specially themed menus—Asian, Mediterranean, South American, soul food —were featured to highlight the diverse cultures represented on campus. d i V e R S i T Y B Y T h e n u M B e R S c o M M u n i T Y S n a p S h o T T h e c l a S S o F 2 0 1 8 : a F R i c a n - a M e R i c a n a n d h i S pa n i c S T u d e n T S 20% increase in applications 25% increase in admits 15% increase in enrollment "As a first-rate public institution, we are committed to training our students to excel in diverse environments and to making our community and campus spaces inclusive and welcoming to people from all backgrounds."
