The Black Student Union was founded as the Black Academic Achievement Society by minority students in 1971 to provide mutual support and friendship and give minority students a representative voice on campus.  The goal of the Black Student Union is to support and encourage members throughout their USciences experience and promote campus-wide awareness and appreciation of the African-American culture.  Meetings are held throughout the year, and membership is open to all.

 

 

The current advisors are Varleisha Gibbs and Jesse Philips.
