Clark Atlanta University is celebrating the opening of its new Student Success Center — the university’s first major academic facility in more than two decades.

Jazz 91.9 WCLK, the award-winning NPR affiliate that broadcasts live from CAU’s campus, shared video from the ribbon-cutting celebration on October 11, congratulating the university as homecoming week got underway: “Congratulations once again to @cau1988 on the opening of the new Student Success Center.”
According to the university, the center brings student support under one roof, housing the Center for Academic and Student Success, the Student Success Project, and Career & Professional Development. Students can find academic advising, tutoring, mentoring, success coaching, career exploration, internship preparation, graduate school planning, and workshops in one place.
The project, funded through the U.S. Department of Education’s Title III program, is CAU’s first major academic building project in over 20 years — an investment the university describes as a cornerstone for academic achievement, professional preparation, and the development of the next generation of Panther leaders.
The opening gave students, faculty, and returning alumni one more reason to celebrate during homecoming week, October 11–17.
