The Center for Multicultural and Academic Initiatives provides academic, personal, social, and cultural support to students. Through programs, such as Diversity Education Training and the Safe Space Ally Building Workshop, we strive to promote a campus environment that understands and embraces multiculturalism. The Center also offers culturally rich programming experiences in the form of events such as Kwanzaa and our annual Dinner Theater.

Offering various scholarships for academic excellence, the Center plays a crucial role in the recruitment and retention of underrepresented students. The Center is located on the fourth floor of Saddlemire Student Services at Conklin. The reception area is in room 425. We are available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. You can contact us via phone at 419-372-2642 or fax us at 419-372-2124.
