Multicultural Student Success in every college

Directors of Multicultural Student Success are embedded in each college, focusing on improving the experience of students of color on campus in a targeted way, by addressing the specific needs and obstacles in each college and of individual students. They work closely with student affairs staff and academic advisors to make sure multicultural students are getting help if they need it, connecting with valuable opportunities and avoiding stumbling blocks.
