African American Cultural & Research Center
Whether you walk in the front door or call by phone, the greeting that always welcomes you at the University of Cincinnati African American Cultural and Research Center (AACRC) is “Habari Gani,” Swahili for “What good news do you have?”
For the individuals who walk over its threshold, the good news is the center.
Study time and companionship, skills-building programs ranging from how to be successful in college to how to get financial aid and ceremonies marking significant aspects of Black life at UC are all part of what the center offers.
The AACRC plays a key role in the university’s mission by providing services and support to the university community, especially Black students. The center helps prepare students to become effective leaders of tomorrow by:
- influencing academic excellence through programming and recognition
- providing connections
- building community relationships and
- recruiting and retaining students
Opened on September 21,1991, the AACRC is poised to become a model for cultural and racial understanding in higher education. The center serves as a resource for enlightenment about the Black experience, and has become a place visited and used by a wide variety of organizations on campus and in the Greater Cincinnati community.
