About
Mission (objectives and approach): To cultivate a community of belonging that extends beyond academic and administrative pursuits into cultural and social entities. To create a second-home for multicultural students at the communal and personal level. To provide a space for creative expression and expansion without marginalization.
Vision (desired future): Serve as a resource that will work to meet the physical and social needs of multicultural communities, so they can spend less time working to overcome barriers and more time creating influence and developing personal identity.
