BSU Fest 2024 needs volunteers

Save the date! Due to the popular success of the event last year, the LLCC Black Student Union is hosting BSU Fest again on April 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event celebrates black culture and excellence, and connects you with the Black students of LLCC.

BSU is seeking Black volunteers to have lunch with students during the event. The event’s purpose is to introduce students to the Black staff and faculty of LLCC and inspire them to consider LLCC as a home for their educational journey. We would like to highlight all career fields. This is a chance to mentor and inspire the next generation of Black leaders and scholars. The event is specifically aimed at high school seniors but will include some community members as well. Please email Brandon Lewis by March 21 with your name, department and availability if you would like to participate. More information will be provided at a later date. Thank you for your support and participation.
