Third World Center Faculty & Staff Survey

The Third World Center seeks to provide students with a variety of opportunities to engage the academic endeavors of the University by integrating students' curricular and co-curricular interests. Accordingly, the Center’s mission is fourfold:

To provide an environment in which Arab, Asian, Black, Latino, Multiracial and Native American students can feel comfortable celebrating their cultural heritages.

To provide a base from which Third World students can have an impact as a community at Brown.

To expand the social awareness of the University community with regards to current issues involving the status of Third World people at Brown University and in society at large.

To equip students with life-long skills to aid them as they navigate their journey at Brown.

The overarching purpose of the Center is to make significant contributions to the personal and intellectual growth of students at Brown. Its major programs are: the Minority Peer Counselor Program, Third World Transition Program and facilitating eleven cultural series during the academic year.
