The ACB Experience
Connect. Learn. Thrive.
The ACB Experience is a series of workshops, interactive activities, and community events designed to bring together African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) students on campus. It provides opportunities to celebrate culture, share stories, and build meaningful connections across all aspects of student life. More than just events, the ACB Experience is about creating spaces where students can explore identity, foster belonging, and strengthen community. Whether it’s a discussion, a creative gathering, or a networking opportunity, each moment is designed to empower students and showcase the vibrancy of ACB student life on campus.

Why It Matters
Representation and community matter. The ACB Experience is more than events; it’s about building a supportive, inclusive environment where Black students can see themselves reflected, celebrated, and supported on campus.
Guided by the spirit of Ubuntu, we recognize that community and connection shape who we are:
“Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu”
“I am because we are”
