The Office of Multicultural Affairs is part of the Division of Student Affairs. It provides opportunities for comprehensive, interactive developmental programs for students that increase cultural awareness and respect for differences. The program also enhances the ability to appreciate one’s own cultural identity within a multicultural society. UNCG students can have a combination of developmental experiences that directly relate to cultural diversity to broaden understanding and to improve competence level for educating others on differences. The program allows multiple “hands-on” and practical opportunities for students to empower themselves and others to make a visible and positive difference and to have an increased level of sensitivity to diversity issues on UNCG’s campus community.
The Office of Multicultural Affairs is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and is located on the second floor of the Elliott University Center. The Multicultural Resource Center is open Monday and Tuesday from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm, Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, and Friday from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. The MRC is on the lower level of the EUC adjacent to Taylor Garden.
