All About The North Star Center
Our Vision
To be recognized as the gateway for students, faculty, and staff committed to utilizing the rich African, Latino, and Native American cultures as a vehicle to enhance academic success, embrace inclusive student development, and promote cross cultural dialogue.
Mission
The North Star Center exists to intentionally advance the academic, personal, and professional success of AALANA students.
Our Alignment Within RIT
The North Star Center for Academic Success and Cultural Affairs reports to the division of Academic Affairs but, through a holistic approach to student development, retains strong strategic ties with the division of Student Affairs. In fact, the North Star Center succeeds through the RIT community’s shared commitments to cultural awareness and academic success. We are dedicated to the development of the knowledge, skills, and character needed in a civil society.
