The Student Center for Belonging and Community (SCBC) hosts and collaborates with campus partners, student leaders and the Lewiston community to provide an array of events to meet the needs for all students to learn, grow and participate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SCBC hires, trains and supports student leaders, Community Navigators, who help to welcome and maintain an inclusive and open community. Learn more about the Community Navigators on the side panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See below for some of the SCBC’s signature events. To keep up with these events, follow up on Instagram and connect with us on Bates Engage<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
