Multicultural Student Affairs

Multicultural Student Affairs (MSA) is an affirming and empowering space that connects all students to community and resources, helping them feel valued and part of a welcoming environment throughout their educational journey. Our programs and services center on leadership development, academic enrichment, mentorship, and student support.

We research, design, and implement culturally responsive initiatives, events, and programs that inspire students' pursuit of academic and personal success, retention, and graduation. Our programs and services include the Symposium for Multicultural Scholars, peer mentoring, Multicultural Leadership Challenge, Heritage Month programming, cultural celebrations, academic recognition programs, student leadership development, and advising/individualized referrals.

The MSA Suite (Suite 4261 in Talley Student Union) is a welcoming space that promotes community and joy. You can find connection and support, music, conversation, and fellowship happening in the space at any time.
