ASCWU

Equity and Services Council

You are an integral part of the Equity & Services Council in the ASCWU Student Government, a body dedicated to ensuring fairness, inclusivity, and accessibility on the Central Washington University campus. Your role here isn't just administrative; it's about actively engaging with diverse communities, identifying gaps in services, and advocating for changes that promote equity. You help organize workshops, support cultural clubs, and liaise with university services to ensure that every student, regardless of their background, feels seen and heard. Your work contributes to a more inclusive campus environment, where individual differences are celebrated, and every student has an equal opportunity to succeed. In the Equity & Services Council, you're not just shaping policies; you're fostering a culture of acceptance, understanding, and mutual respect.

Director of Equity and Multicultural Affairs: Salima Oulcaid
