The
Black Student Union's principle objective is to promote
a sense of unity among the black community at Holy Cross.
Designed as a support group, this organization works to
help black students develop and expand their potential.
The
BSU is also concerned with promoting a stronger relationship
with the Holy Cross community through such activities
as: New-Student Weekend, a time when applicants of African
descent to the College are invited to experience college
life, BSU sponsored panel discussions concerning African-American
existence on campus, extensive involvement with events
sponsored by African and other Holy Cross organizations,
and African-American Experience Week, designed to diversify
the Holy Cross community.
The
week consists of well-known speakers, dramatic presentations,
films, and various other events which help to unite the
black community as well as educate Holy Cross to the richness
that is Black culture.
