Center for Intercultural Engagement

The mission of the Center for Intercultural Engagement (CIE) is to recognize, embrace, and celebrate the intersectionality of student identities at Oberlin College and Conservatory in an effort to create a sense of inclusion and belonging. To this end, the center and its offices coordinate efforts and resources to celebrate the unique attributes of Oberlin students while engaging them in their commonalities. Through increased dialogue, students will be able to understand the full spectrum of ideas, ideologies, and experiences that comprise the Oberlin student body and respond to them respectfully and proactively. CIE supports students through one-on-one engagement, substantive and interdepartmental programming, and outreach to campus and community partners and allies.
