The resources on this page are intended to help spark conversations about immigration, cultural diversity, and other topics related to the experiences of all types of immigrants in the United States. The goal is to dispel myths and gain a greater understanding of what it means to be an immigrant.
We hope these resources are helpful to drive conversations with students in the classroom and beyond. Please contact any of the Support Team members should you have any feedback or if you would like to know more about how SCSU is working to support our students.
