Black College Women (BCW)

Established in 2015, this project was created as a platform to unite all women at the University in a shared dedication to work towards eliminating historical race, gender, class, cultural, and religious barriers to success for all women. Committed to inclusivity, BCW welcomes individuals of all backgrounds, identities, and perspectives seeking meaningful dialogue and advocacy. BCW provides educational and engagement opportunities for all women, including engaging young women in advocacy for one another, building capacity for sustained personal, academic, social, and emotional growth, and connecting women to growth opportunities across grounds and globally.

OAAA programs, support services, spaces and events are open to all students, regardless of age, color, disability,  gender, national or ethnic origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation or socioeconomic status. We are committed to fostering an environment where everyone is valued and respected.
