Gah’Ques Ligons (’25)“The Intercultural Center (IC) became my home away from home on campus since I first stepped on campus. They create an inclusive atmosphere where I can be myself and build meaningful connections. The IC and the staff have helped shape my college experience and help me grow into the leader I am today.”
“The IC has become a very special place for me, it’s the place where I can be my most transparent self, I am accepted and embraced for who I am and where I come from. This has become my home away from home.”
Vianney Manjarrez (’24 , MSM ’25)
“The IC is the perfect to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures. I love meeting new people there and being able to share my own culture and background with others.”

"We`re Glad You`re Here," keeps a smile on the faces of the IC staff. We cannot do the work without you choosing the IC as a space that you find comfort and community. Students are our why and we never lose sight of that. To all of the alumni who have used the IC in the past, consider giving to ensure the value of the IC. To the families of current students, consider giving to ensure your student has access to a sense of belonging. To future students and families, consider giving to create the space you want to see when you are a Demon Deacon.
The Intercultural Center is grateful to be a hub for interconnectivity, community, and belonging. Everyday we show up for each other in effort to make us better and encourage us to grow. Our slogan applies to each and everyone of you that contributes to the IC story, "Whoever You Are, Wherever You`re From, We`re Glad You`re Here."
Giving is still live until midnight. To give, click the "Deacs Day of Giving" button in our Linktree in our bio.

Deacs Day of Giving for the IC is about acknowledging & accepting the Center as a place where commonalities and differences meet & embracing everything that comes with it.
