Ethnic Student Center

The Ethnic Student Center (ESC) is an organization within the Office of Multicultural Student Services at Western Washington University. Since 2019, the ESC has been located in the Multicultural Center on the 7th floor of the Viking Union and contains study spaces, conference rooms, a dance room, and a kitchen. The ESC has many resources to support academic endeavors, and we frequently partner with other offices on campus to provide support services to students, like resume building workshops and cooking classes. ALL are welcome. Come stop by!
