ColorStack is a nonprofit organization increasing the entrance, retention, and success of Black and Latinx college students in computing through a national network of college students and local campus chapters. Launching at Cornell, they were able to triple Black and Latinx representation in the CS department in just a few years. Some benefits to joining include:
• Resources to succeed both professionally and academically
• Becoming part of a nationwide family
It's been a great resource for a few MIT students so far, and recently MIT was selected along with Columbia, UChicago, and Johns Hopkins to launch a college chapter! If you’re interested in being involved with the MIT ColorStack chapter, please make sure to fill out this form and the form down below.
Be sure to also join the national family of 600+ students here:
