Mission Statement
The Black Caucus supports professional development, networking, and the discussion of issues affecting black students and professionals throughout college and university communities. The Caucus engages in identifying solutions to issues surrounding access as well as examining ways to enhance and increase the representation of both black students and professionals within colleges and universities.
The Black Caucus connects via the Exchange, meets at the monthly Caucus Gatherings, writes articles, and hosts webinars throughout the year. They also convene at AACRAO’s Annual Meeting to discuss goals and visions that members have for their institutions, and to exchange ideas to build a better tomorrow. The Caucus is open to all AACRAO members interested in advancing the black community by facilitating community building, the exchange of ideas and information addressing critical issues, promoting leadership development and scholarship opportunities.
