Unity Week at Brooklyn College
Bridging the Campus: Embracing Diversity
Monday April 15 – Friday, April 19
Students who participate in Unity Week will be engaged in learning about the different cultures at Brooklyn College. Through the various programs and activities, students will gain a greater appreciation for our campus diversity and each program encourages the members of our community to commit to building unity on campus.
Unity Week provides opportunities for working together to build a dynamic and stronger campus community while engaging a generation of prospective college students. This year’s theme “Bridging the Campus: Embracing Diversity” reflects the goals of Unity Week.
