What’s happening in CDI?

Sammar Parham portrait
The CDI is where I’ve found my home away from home on campus. It was one of the first places where I have felt loved and welcomed, and now as a member of their staff I’m proud to bring that love and welcoming feeling everywhere I go!

As a queer Asian student, the CDI has been foundational to my time at WashU since my first semester. It is a radically inclusive and empathetic space dedicated to its students. I’ve met some of my closest friends here, attended amazing programming, and grown as a student and a professional. Drop by sometime and be in community–just don’t expect to get any homework done while you’re here!
