In 1995, Cal Poly Pomona welcomed Cultural Centers to campus, and we are honored to be celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year. The theme for the virtual celebration is Chapter 25: Honoring Our Roots. Our goal is to honor the 25 years of diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice work of the Cultural Centers, alumni, faculty, staff, administrators, and community allies while connecting with the campus community. We are celebrating our legacy virtually through ...a campaign designed to highlight our past Cultural Center leaders and their contributions and our introduction of a podcast,Chapter 25: Tracing Our Roots,on the Anchor platformto document our cultural center story from diverse perspectives. The celebration webpage launched today on the Office of Student Life & Cultural Centers website:https://www.cpp.edu/oslcc/celebration.shtml. The webpage will direct the audience to our podcast platform for available episodes (podcast episodes will be released weekly on Wednesdays for the remainder of the Fall semester), a link to support the Cultural Centers, a tribute to celebrate past Cultural Center leaders, and a timeline of our story. While we cannot physically come together to celebrate this special anniversary, we hope you enjoy learning more about the story of the Cal Poly Pomona Cultural Centers.
