Welcome to the student of color affinity community page!

The Fleishman Center recognizes the historic challenges encountered by students of color at predominantly white institutions. This web page provides a space for students of color to connect with alumni, faculty, staff, and peers to create a strong network, share experiences, and be informed about events that empower your career success.

This web page is designed to be open to all Binghamton University students, faculty and staff regardless of race, color, national origin, or sex, and is consistent with all current governing federal and state nondiscrimination law.
