Cultural Centers
Asian American Center – The center provides space and supports the experiences of the Northeastern community’s Asian American students.

John D. O’Bryant African-American Institute – The institute is committed to intellectually, culturally, and socially inspiring students toward excellence, success, and service through programs, resources, services, and activities—while also fostering a nurturing, supportive, and welcoming environment focused on students of African origin. Moreover, the institute is dedicated to engaging the broader university community, the surrounding urban community, and the world for balanced student and leadership development enjoined with the promotion and distinction of their career goals.
Latino/a Student Cultural Center – The center empowers Latino/a leaders of tomorrow in an increasingly global environment through academic, personal and professional development—while also promoting interactions between NU students from diverse backgrounds to enhance their academic, cultural, and social experience. The center offers programming that focuses on leadership development, socio-cultural experience, alumni involvement, relationship building with our urban neighbors, and academic support.

The GSG is the official liaison between graduate students and the university’s faculty and administration, enabling grad students to influence change in the educational programs, processes, and administrative management of the university. Open meetings are held monthly and all graduate students are eligible to become GSG Senators and become voting members. Major functions of the GSG include:
- Individual Funding – The GSG will provide funding to graduate students up to $375 per academic year for conference, competition, or other activity expenses, including registration fees, travel and lodging.
- Student Group Funding – The GSG will provide funding up to $3,000 per academic year to recognized graduate student organizations for programs, events, and activities.
