Here at Rutgers University–New Brunswick, we pride ourselves on our commitment to work together to embody, reflect, and respect the complexities of our identities. At the core of Rutgers is a “beloved community”—a community defined by tolerance, mutual respect, diversity, and the spirited exchange of opinions and ideas. Through living-learning communities and the Cultural Center Collaborative, we embrace our differences to foster a sense of belonging. Our learning communities bring together an array of students who share similar academic interests to create opportunities to live, learn, and grow together. The Cultural Center Collaborative consists of four centers committed to supporting the needs of Rutgers’ students, faculty, and staff inclusive of all identities and allies:
• Asian American Cultural Center
