Harvard University on Tuesday is scheduled to host a gathering focused specifically on bringing together students of color, one of many such events offered at campuses nationwide this fall as colleges and universities welcome students back.
They are touted as events for “BIPOC” students, which stands for Black, Indigenous, People of Color.
The “Welcome Block Party” at Harvard, according to its website, is designed to allow the Ivy League institution’s “Black, Indigenous, and People of Color” to come together and learn about the support and resources offered on campus.
Similarly, at the University of Nebraska Lincoln last week, the “3rd Annual Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) Welcome Reception” was hosted, where food and games were offered to attendees, its website stated.
