Cultural/Diversity Student Organizations

• Student organizations offer social, service, and professional opportunities for their members within the university and community.

Holiday Resources

Appreciating Diversity During the Holidays:

• Learn about other celebrations. Carve out some time from online shopping or a Holiday TV show to learn about another culture's celebrations during this time. Watch a TV special on other celebrations, do a Google search on a holiday, or check out books at your local bookstore while gift shopping. Share your learning with others, and use it as a chance to expand the conversation at parties and at the dinner table.
• Make no expectations.
