Ethnic Student Center

The Ethnic Student Center (ESC) is an organization within Multicultural Student Services of Western Washington University and was established in 1991. The ESC is located on the 7th floor of the Viking Union and provides social and academic support, professional and student staff, and amenities such as lounge space, a full kitchen, as well as dance and conference rooms. Our goal is to help students Affirm their identity, Build a sense of community, and Cultivate leadership (Our "ABCs"). The ESC is home to many diverse clubs open to students of all backgrounds.
