The events documented include Black History Month programs, the Donning of the Kente ceremony, Multicultural Center events, Hispanic Heritage Month, Asian American Student Union cultural heritage programs, book signings, and guest speakers. There are also pictures of various faculty, staff, and students. Additionally, the collection contains flyers and calendars from the Black Organizations Council and related organizations, a binder of slides of paintings, drawings, and portraits, accounting documents, a history of events booklet, and folders of records, minutes, and other documents.","Includes constitutions from the Jewish Student Union (JSU), University Council, and Student Budget Board.","In fall of 2015, the Black Organizations Council held an event titled  State of the Black Union: Do Black Lives Matter at Virginia Tech?.  These posters were part of an associated community feedback event where students were asked to write their responses to the prompt \"Why do Black Lives Matter at Virginia Tech?\" The event took place a few months after racially charged protests at the University of Missouri and students here at Virginia Tech were eager to have their voices heard.","A concert poster signed by Charles Mingus and John D'earth. The event description from Facebook read: \"Join the Virginia Tech Jazz Ensemble and special guest John D'earth in celebrating the music of Charles Mingus. This concert is presented in conjunction with the Office of Multicultural Programs' celebration of Black History Month. This performance will also feature the award winning jazz ensemble from Albemarle HS $5 Students/$8 Adults\""],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe copyright status of this collection is unknown.
