Traditions
Black Love Week
Hosted each spring, Black Love Week focuses amplifying Black love throughout the community. All events are centered around self-love, relationships, and spreading love to the people around you.
Fall Fest
Hosted in fall, Fall Fest is led by the Gaines/Oldham Black Culture Center and Multicultural Center, this annual program showcases campus and community resources, involvement opportunities, and live performances from student organizations and councils.
LBC Homecoming
Hosted each fall, this week-long program highlights Black experiences and spaces on campus. Usually ends with a big event like the LBC Homecoming Ball and The Culture Collective. The focus is to uplift Black students on campus and give them a specialized experience outside of the predominately white Mizzou homecoming.
Welcome Black & Gold BBQ
Hosted in fall, this annual, family-reunion style event is an amazing back-to-school event for all of Black Mizzou to come together, enjoy food and music, and catch up from the summer.
