Welcome!

The Library has put together this Research Guide to support faculty, students and staff in their efforts to increase awareness of multiculturalism and diversity on our campus, and to incorporate this awareness into all aspects of our campus lives. If you know of a resource that you think should be included in this guide, please let us know. And of course, if you have any questions, use the contact information at right to contact us.

The library has also created research guides on speakers that have been brought or will be brought to campus through the STCC Diversity Council, including Nikki Giovanni, Juan Williams and Morris Dees.
