February is w88 live casino History Month and Brandon Sanders, coordinator, African Diaspora, Student Advising and Development, of the University’s w88 live casino Center shared some insights and a few of the upcoming events that will be taking place on campus. Sanders’ goal at the University is to help students find community and success. He helps to provide and connect students with ultimate resources and services specific to the Black student body on campus. In addition to programming, Sanders connects with and supports the Black Student Organization and the Divine Nine Black Greek Sororities and Fraternities on campus. “I’m also here in any way I can be for the students,” Sanders said, “that includes one-on-one support to students to support them however they need.”
These events are meant to amplify and share the voices, stories and experiences of our w88 live casino community. Everyone is welcome to come and engage in meaningful dialogue with these fun and informative events. More information can be found on Pack Life.
