Diversity

7.9.16

Dear CCAD Family,

It is with a heavy heart that I write you all -- so soon after our country's birthday -- to express my sorrow about what a tragic summer it has been for America.

Forty-nine killed last month at a gay bar in Orlando. Two black men killed by police this week in Baton Rouge and St. Paul. Five police officers killed in Dallas. And these are just the recent headlines.

CCAD is all about diversity and inclusion.

So once a month, the Office of Multicultural Affairs organizes a lunchtime discussion about topics ranging from race to LGBT issues.

Oh, and there’s free pizza for current CCAD students.

Columbus College of Art & Design’s board of trustees has named Dr. Melanie Corn, an accomplished chief academic officer, as CCAD’s new president. Dr. Corn will assume her position as CCAD’s fifth president on March 21, 2016.
