As we reflect on 2024, it’s clear that it’s been a remarkable year for our Multicultural Programs, full of impactful events, inspiring initiatives, and a steadfast commitment to promoting inclusivity on campus. This year has been filled with countless opportunities to celebrate inclusion, engage in meaningful conversations, and strengthen our community.
2024 Highlights
