BOC also serves as a liaison between the administration, university organizations, and the Black community, provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and dissemination of information, promotes the Black organizations individually and collectively, coordinates events which require the participation of all entities of the Black community and supports the development of campus camaraderie within the university community. BOC has a mission of being the governing, representing, and coordinating body for the primarily African American student organizations. We will also provide activism and advocacy, while meeting the challenge of the social and political forces affecting the Black community. We encourage each representative organization to empower themselves to create a paradigm in the area of leadership and service in the community.\n","Source: Black Organizations Council, GobblerConnect webpage,  https://gobblerconnect.vt.edu/organization/BOC .","The guide to the Records of the Virginia Tech Black Organizations Council by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your- work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Records of the Virginia Tech Black Organizations Council commenced in April 2018 and was completed in December 2019.","This collection contains video cassette tapes of events and programs relating to the Black community at Virginia Tech and programs of other minority groups.
