Student interest in an intercultural center on campus has been growing. Students have dedicated their collective efforts to exploring the role of a center with consultant Lori Patton Davis, a scholar and researcher on cultural centers in higher education.
The Merced 2020 Project will enable the campus to provide additional space for cultural groups and programs as early as 2018. In the interim, the university is using a temporary space as an intercultural hub — Room 159 in Kolligian Library, also known as the Acorn Room.
For more information on the new intercultural space, go to the Panorama story here.
