Services offered include a variety of lectures, seminars, programs, workshops and activities, which promote student development and contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the African Diaspora, with an emphasis on the African American experience. The Pan- African Culture & Research Center is guided by the philosophy of “Legacy, Leadership and Excellence” which forms the basis for a “Beloved Community,” espoused by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It is through understanding our past, preparing leaders for the future, and embracing excellence that this theme is realized. The Pan African Center for Community Studies is an innovative center, which combines the best of the academic world with the best of the social and community world. It combines the many missions of the urban university to be both socially and academically engaged with the society at large. It also provides information to support and stimulate student research.

Services offered include a variety of lectures, seminars, programs, workshops, and activities, which promote student development and contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the African Diaspora, with special emphasis on the African American experience. In the Dr. Shirla R. McClain Gallery of Akron Black History and Culture, you can see the history and experiences of African Americans who have helped develop and shape this city. It also serves as a show place for the research activities of the Pan African Center for Community Studies. The center's Black History lecture series continues to bring top-notch intellectuals to share their research with the greater Akron community. The presence of these intellectuals is due in large part to another exciting part of our program the synergies developed between the University and the business community. Several businesses have contributed to this series to fund these exciting lecturers. The Ohio Humanities Council and several companies such as Alltel Communications, Bank One, The Akron Beacon Journal and the Steward Calhoun Funeral Home have all contributed funds to make this lecture series a success and we thank them for their support.
