Multicultural Student Engagement

The Office of Multicultural Student Engagement (OMSE) empowers, celebrates and advocates on behalf of all members of the CUC community because we believe in the notion of access and inclusion for all. The OMSE provides a variety of educational programs, leadership opportunities and social activities that promote intercultural learning. Our team works to retain students of color and first-generation college students at CUC, while also coordinating programs and events that support cultural awareness on campus. In addition, our office advises culturally based student organizations and provides both leadership development and peer mentoring opportunities.
