OFFICE OF MULTICULTURAL AFFAIRS
Multicultural Resource Center
The Office of Multicultural Affairs operates a unique space on campus in the
Elliott University Center—the Multicultural Resource Center. It’s
a place to learn, a place to gather, a place to explore—it’s a place where
every member of UNCG’s diverse community can come to share experiences and build
on common ground. It creates an opportunity to make meaningful cross-cultural
connections and fosters an appreciation for the rich customs and traditions
brought together by every individual who steps through its doors. Located on
the ground level of the EUC, the environment itself is inviting and welcoming
with lots of comfortable seating for studying and conversing. There are computers
for internet searching and email checking. There is an ever-expanding library
of cultural resources including books, videotapes,and a wide-ranging collection
of magazines with new issues arriving almost every day.
Please note: some items require the Adobe Acrobat PDF Reader, which can be downloaded from the Adobe web site.
