Northwest strives to educate its community while maintaining a welcoming environment where everyone can thrive. By understanding our individual responsibilities, Bearcats can create a community of acceptance for all individuals and nurture an atmosphere for positive social change. Our office is an open space for all, and we hope you will visit us in the Student Engagement Center on second floor of the J.W. Jones Student Union.
The Student Achievement Reception is a free hallmark event for the academic semester. In collaboration with International Involvement Center, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion will host families, friends, faculty, staff and the community to celebrate graduating students from all multicultural and underrepresented backgrounds. This program will present cultural stoles, recognize student involvement and reflect on their experiences at Northwest.
Hors d'Oeuvres and Desserts will be provided.
