<p>Did I miss somewhere on the BU website where it explained what the Common Ground is for orientation??? I don’t have any idea. Anybody familiar with this??</p>
<p>From the BU website:</p>
<p>Multicultural Life </p>
<p>The goal of the Howard Thurman Center for Race, Culture, and Ethnicity is to enhance the academic success and personal development of all University students. The Thurman Center offers programs and resources that encourage African-, Hispanic/Latino-, Asian-, and Native-American students to develop a sense of community on campus.</p>
<p>Among the programs that the Thurman Center offers is Common Ground, a year-long community-building experience beginning as a component to University Orientation and continuing throughout the academic year with receptions, seminars, discussions, and presentations. Students from all races, religions, and ethnic groups are welcome to participate.</p>
<p>Thanks…I believe I’ll be skipping that…</p>
