Center for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The Katherine P. Douglas Center for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (Diversity Center) at SUNY CCC is named in honor of Dr. Katherine P. Douglas, who
served as president of SUNY Corning Community College from 2011-2019. The Center is
a cultural, educational, and social space on the Corning Community College campus
open to all SUNY CCC students. The Center, located in the Commons, COM 229, is fueled
by a spirit of community, understanding, and respect as well as collaborative leadership
that fosters the sharing of experiences, resources, and talents with each other and
with the greater community.
Goals & Objectives: We seek to promote a supportive environment for students to live, learn, and grow as members of the College and the greater community and as individuals.
