Celebrating Black History Month

February is Black History Month, a time to honor the achievements, contributions, and resilience of Black individuals throughout history. It serves as an opportunity to reflect on the struggles faced in pursuing justice and equality while celebrating the rich cultural heritage and accomplishments of the Black community.

At Commonwealth University, we recognize the significance of this month and remain committed to fostering an inclusive environment that values diversity. We encourage our CU family to participate in various educational programs, cultural events, and discussions that highlight the impact of Black leaders, innovators, and everyday heroes. Numerous special programs and events are being held throughout the month at our Bloomsburg, Lock Haven, and Mansfield campuses.

As we celebrate, we also acknowledge that the journey toward equity continues. This month is about reflection and engaging in meaningful dialogue and action that contribute to a more inclusive society. By embracing the spirit of Black History Month, we can help build a culture of respect, understanding, and appreciation for the diversity that strengthens both our campuses and our communities.
