Book donations from Project Connect to the ROMC Resource Library

On behalf of the ROMC Resource Library and its staff, we would like to thank CCSC's Project Connect for their generous donation of several multicultural books to the new ROMC Resource library. Their commitment to helping build the new library in our community is sincerely appreciated.  

Each year the ROMC continues to advance its mission of promoting a multi-ethnic, culturally conscious University, affirming equally the human and intellectual heritage of all peoples. We hope that we will continue to spread multiculturalism throughout the community through this new program.  

With the help of donations from supporters such as Project Connect, we will continue to see improvements in the new ROMC Resource Library.

Here are some of the books that were donated by Project Connect: 

Race, Rights, and the Asian American Experience

Angelo N. Ancheta

 

American Politics and the African American Quest for Universal Freedom 

Hanes Walton Jr., Robert C. Smith

  

Culture, Crisis, and America's War on Terror
