Cultural and Other Programming

Cultural Programming

The Office of Multicultural Student Affairs does not have a programming budget for diversity events. We actively collaborate with the Center for Multicultural Experiences for cultural programming. Students, faculty, staff, and community members should contact Mary Bonderoff at the Center for Multicultural Experiences for possible program sponsorship or Center availability.

AALANA Mentor Programming

While the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs does not sponsor event programming, the AALANA Mentor Program does do some programming specifically for mentor program participants. These programs are always free and open to the campus. Examples of these programs include: Student Forums on Identity, Career Panels, Community Organizing Strategies, and Leadership to name just a few.

Mentor Schedule

Diversity Trainings

The Director of the office of Multicultural Student Affairs does regular training sessions with campus leaders such as Resident Advisors, Academic Team Members, and student organizations in the area of diversity awareness and sensitivity, multicultural education, interrupting bias in the residence halls, and stereotyping in the residence halls to name just a few. Faculty and staff trainings include all of the above as well as Diversity Customer Service Skills, Cultural Competence, Diversity in the Workplace, Valuing Diversity, and Managing Diversity.
