The Justin and Darrianne Christian Center For Diversity and Inclusion
The Justin and Darrianne Christian Center for Diversity and Inclusion (CDI) is one of seven centers on DePauw's campus. It was erected to serve as a gathering place for the Association of African American Students (AAAS) and The Dorothy Brown Cultural Resource Center. It is home to the office spaces of CDI Staff and the Director of International Student Affairs; all serving as a resource for over 30 affinity student groups.
featured spaces
Spaces at the Center for Diversity and Inclusion offer a unique opportunity for student groups, university departments, and individual students to host events. Examples include, but are not limited to, reserving the conference room for meetings, the kitchen for cooking and food-based events, and the meeting spaces for group study sessions. The atrium is the most requested space and is frequently reserved for game nights, presentations, and luncheons. View the CDI Calendar to see what's happening today.
