Multicultural Student Affairs
The primary mission of the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs is to help prepare all Shepherd University students to live, learn, work and succeed in a diverse society. Therefore, this office embraces all students and endeavors to create awareness, appreciation, action and advocacy around issues of race, gender, sexual orientation, culture, ethnicity, national origin, ability and religion through passive and active programs, speakers, lecture series and community service. The Office of Multicultural Student Affairs administers the Multicultural Leadership Scholarship program, and provides support and guidance to student organizations that promote the needs of under represented populations such as Allies, United Brothers, Sistaz and the International Student Union.
