Multicultural Student Services assists with the educational, cultural, social and personal needs of all students, with special emphasis on race, gender and sexual orientation. The primary focus is to aid in the development of tomorrow’s leaders through support and advocacy.

Some of our services include sponsoring, co-sponsoring, and supporting academic, social, and cultural events on campus and in the community.  In addition, trainings, workshops, and professional development opportunities are provided to students, faculty, and staff. Feel free to contact us or just stop by our office located on the second floor of the Student Union.
