Multicultural Affairs
The primary goal of Multicultural Affairs is to foster an atmosphere of pluralism and inclusion where diversity
is respected and celebrated. To accomplish this, Multicultural Affairs offers an array of co-curricular activities
that are designed to recognize the unique contributions and traditions of the various cultural, ethnic, gender,
religious, and social groups in our society. These groups include, but are not limited to African-Americans,
Latino, Native Americans, Asians/Pacific Islanders, women and the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender) population. Acknowledging diversity includes welcoming the exploration of difference in
opinion, thought, perception and perspective. Activities designed to increase awareness and instill cultural
sensitivity include off-campus trips, multicultural luncheons/dinners, educational displays, traveling exhibits,
workshops, classroom presentations and cultural clubs and intergroup collaboration. The College Office of
Multicultural Affairs publishes a monthly newsletter highlighting the programs, activities and events planned
and provided by Multicultural Affairs.
