Mission
Our mission is to bring cultural awareness by organizing multicultural activities and reflect diversity within the Hennepin Technical College community.

Pangea: Diversity, Integration, Awareness

Meaning of Pangea
In 1915, the German geologist and meteorologist Alfred Wegener first proposed the theory of continental drift. Wegener hypothesized that there was an original, gigantic supercontinent 200 million years ago, which he named Pangea, meaning “All-earth”. It made sense to name the club Pangea because the club comprises of students representing different countries from all over the world.

About Us

It was started in 2002 by a small group of students whose belief was that by starting a multicultural club in the school it would create awareness of the different and diverse cultures.
