Through our services and programs to students, staff, and faculty we advance the educational, cultural, and social understanding of our diverse human family. We represent and serve all of Creighton and our mission is to engage the entire Creighton community in our work for inclusion and appreciation of diversity. We aim to improve intercultural relations through promoting the idea for people from

different cultural groups to have a mutual interest to interact with one another, learn about one another, and grow together. We want to highlight the wonderful space we have to study, ask for help, or talk.

Thanks to Coach Jordan () and Coach Trey () for spending time in the CIC with our students discussing current events. Our students shared openly about how they are navigating the current cultural climate. They shared moments of solidarity, friendship, and support with and for one another. Hope to see you at the next one.

Let the vibrations of sound restore balance, reduce stress, and inspire a deeper sense of community.

Arrive a few minutes early to secure a comfortable spot and settle in. Participants may remain in the theater seats or recline on stage. Some mats will be provided on stage, though you are welcome to bring your own. You may bring a blanket or eye mask/pillow. Comfortable clothes are recommended.
