Resources for Students

Department of Multicultural Services

The Department of Multicultural Services provides multiple support services for current and prospective students from underrepresented populations and diversity education programs fostering inclusive learning environments for all students. Through our various student enrichment and diversity education efforts, we serve as a resource in advocacy, mentoring, academic support, diversity education, and enhancement of life skills.

The department is home to several student organizations, programs, and courses fostering environments for student development and learning. Student organizations include Asian Presidents’ Council (APC), Black Student Advisory Council (BSAC), Hispanic Presidents’ Council (HPC), Excellence uniting Culture, Education, and Leadership (ExCEL) Student Success Program, Encouraging Respect, Acceptance, and Support through Education (E”RAS”E), Maximizing Educational Development through Academic and Leadership Skills (MEDALS), Southwestern Black Student Leadership Conference (SBSLC), and University Awareness for Cultural Togetherness (U-ACT). Outside of student organizations, we offer additional involvement opportunities including African American Student Leadership Institute (AASLI), Institute for the Development and Education of Asian American Leaders (IDEAAL), Diversity Training Institute (DTI), Social Justice seminar, and African American and Mexican American civil rights tours typically occurring during spring semesters. Our department is also home to a free tutorial service providing consistent one-on-one and small group tutoring in specific courses.

A commitment to diversity means a commitment to the inclusion and support of individuals from all groups, encompassing the various characteristics of persons in our community. As we harness the power of diversity, we provide students, faculty, and staff a university experience rich in perspectives and opportunities.
