About Us

This union will seek to promote the historical and present-day achievements of black people from around the world; strive to elevate us morally and intellectually, on issues of race, politics, social reform, and community. It will also provide and promote the unity of Black/ African-American students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. We aim to serve as a voice for black students and to establish a sense of identity, community, and pride. Black Student Union will focus on bringing our diverse culture to the campus, allowing all students to be exposed to our way of life. Our organization is open to all WPI students and will not discriminate based on race, religion, sexuality, beliefs or gender. Black Student Union will also strive to serve as a summit to all Black/African-American organizations on campus. Membership in this group is open to all students who have an interest in this topic. There are no restrictions based on identity, background, beliefs, or affiliation. The group welcomes anyone who wishes to participate, contribute, and support its mission, fostering a respectful and inclusive environment for all members.
