Office of Multicultural Services and Programs (MSP)

View Our Upcoming Events

Opened October 1, 2015, under the leadership of Dr. Willie Banks, Jr., Vice President for Student Affairs, the Office of Multicultural Services and Programs (MSP) was created to advocate across various vectors to grow Indiana State University into a model of multicultural excellence for all who learn, live, and work on campus. MSP strives to build a climate of inclusion and community and aim to enhance intercultural competency through workshops, services, resources, programs, and influencing ISU policies and practices. We work actively with and for all Indiana State University students.

The Office of Multicultural Services and Programs will focus on strategies that will increase the retention and graduation rates of our students.

Our goals are simple:

• Ally with and support students in marginalized communities
• Assist in the retention and graduation of multicultural students by fostering a sense of community through intellectual, social, and cultural exchange
• Provide and promote safe spaces for challenging dialog about students' experiences and concerns
• Provide services and programs that support multicultural students in realizing their academic, professional, and personal potential

To assist in accomplishing the goals set for MSP, several resource centers were created.
