Annually, the Black Faculty & Staff puts on a Black Student Stoling Ceremony for our black students and their supporters. In conjunction with the traditional commencement, it is meant to celebrate the tradition of cultural awareness at CSUCI.
This special event recognizes students along with their family and friends to mark the culmination of their student experience. As part of the ceremony, graduates will receive a traditional Kente cloth stole/sash which may be worn during the campus' Commencement celebration.
On May 17th, 2024, families, faculty, & staff celebrated our students at the Black Student Stoling Ceremony in the Grand Salon. Here are the photos from the 2024 Ceremony.
