People of Colour Department

Welcome to the People of Colour Department!   We advocate for and support students of African, Asian, Pacific Islander, Aboriginal, Indigenous, Latin, Arab, multiracial and other relevant backgrounds. We provide a safe, autonomous space on campus where POC can chill and take a step back from the pressures of campus life.  Come along to our various collectives for a bite to eat and a chat.
