Purdue University is a place committed to cultivating diversity in higher education.

As one of five cultural centers at Purdue, the BCC provides purposeful, holistic, scholarly and co-curricular programming designed to strengthen understanding of African American heritage.

Our 18,500 square foot building at the Black Cultural Center has captured the vigor of African-American culture and the spirit of traditional African architecture. The building's layout can be compared to a traditional African extended family village. There is a powerful mix of round and rectangular houses throughout Africa, and one can find similar round and rectangular shapes in the BCC. Decorations, patterns and the use of color, an inherent part of African expression, are found on and in the building.
