The Diversity Celebrations Committee (DCC) was created in 1999 to promote and coordinate programming that celebrates diversity in many aspects. DCC provides you with challenging speakers that encourages education, awareness and the experience of various cultures throughout the year. The membership of the committee symbolizes the potential of this campus to be a diverse yet unified community. We strongly encourage you to take advantage of these valuable opportunities to explore vibrant, exciting cultures that are both familiar and unfamiliar.

How many times have you heard people comment that St. Olaf is just one big bubble? Regardless of whether or not you believe this, there actually is an entire world out there completely different and equally as interesting as St. Olaf! We specialize in informing students about events happening off the hill, at other colleges, such as Macalester, The U of M, Gustavus, Luther, and of course, Carleton! If you would like to see more of Carleton College, the possibilities are endless there as well, including movies, concerts, radio, classes, and libraries. The Intercampus committee as part of the SGA is here to help bring all of those possibilities to your attention, and to make it easier for you to experience them. We hope that in the coming months of the school year, that we can bring the relationship with other schools to a new level, so there are not as many stereotypes, and comfort is an adjective present more frequently when these colleges are together, rather than an awkward feeling. We invite all opinions, criticisms, and suggestions from you. Just email us! We obviously do not have a master schedule yet, due to the reliability of the other college, but in the forthcoming months, some major activities could be taking place...stay tuned! We also send out a weekly newsletter about the forthcoming weeks events in the area called "intercampusinfo", so if you are interested, please do contact us!
