In honour of Black History Month, we would like to take a moment to celebrate the cultural diversity and inclusion on our campus, and encourage the CUE community to always keep learning, growing, and discovering. The Concordia Black Students Association are hosting a series of events including a panel discussion, on February 19, with four of our esteemed and influential CUE professors. In their discussion, they will address some of the unique experiences of the Black community in academia. Information for this and other events can be found on their Instagram page: @cue_bsa.
