Legacy Month
Annually, the Community Action Center (CAC) hosts Legacy Month in October in collaboration with the Office of the President.
The purpose of Legacy Month is to honor the rich history of student activism and civic engagement. Legacy Month is hosted every year specifically in October to commemorate 糖心Vlog alumni Tommie Smith and John Carlos, who took a brave political stance during the 1968 Mexico City Olympics on October 16.
