Directions Website

The Center provides opportunities for all students to receive a culturally diverse and enriching educational experience.

The Paul Robeson Cultural Center (PRCC) is a Rutgers University unit that fosters positive relationships of an academic, cultural and humanitarian nature within the University and surrounding communities. In the Spring of 2005, the Center was a recipient of the University's annual Human Dignity Award in recognition of its efforts to provide multicultural education to the Rutgers community. The PRCC offers programs showcasing the contributions of African-Americans to American culture and the international community through literature, science, activism and the arts. The Center was established in 1967 in response to the challenge of providing a supportive atmosphere to increasing numbers of African-American students entering Rutgers University. In 1972, the Center was renamed in honor of Rutgers' esteemed alumnus Paul Robeson.

Growth starts where your comfort zone ends 🌱

Trying something new can feel intimidating. Whether it’s starting college, applying for internships, taking on leadership roles, or learning a new skill, growth often begins with uncertainty.

But success isn’t about being perfect from day one. It’s about embracing the learning process, putting in the work, and trusting that every challenge is an opportunity to grow.

✨ APPLY TODAY - Don’t let fear stop you from becoming who you’re capable of being!

True growth begins when we have spaces where we can be seen, heard, and supported without fear of judgment.
For many college students, navigating academics, personal responsibilities, and life’s challenges can feel overwhelming. No one should have to carry those burdens alone.
The PRCC Mentorship Program is built on the belief that vulnerability is not weakness, but a pathway to connection, encouragement, and resilience. Through meaningful relationships with peers and mentors, students gain a supportive community where they can share their experiences, receive guidance, and grow together.
Because healing, success, and wellness are stronger when we don’t have to face them alone. 🫶🏾

You should never have to change who you are just to belong

For many students, college can feel like a place where there’s pressure to “fit in,” adjust your personality, or leave parts of yourself behind to be accepted. But your identity is not something you should have to compromise.

At the PRCC, we believe your culture, experiences, and authenticity are strengths, not obstacles. Through the “PRCC and Me” Mentorship Program, we’re creating a community where students are supported, celebrated, and empowered to grow without losing themselves.

Whether you’re looking for guidance, connection, or a space where you can show up as your full self, we’re here for you. 🤝
