Students participating in diversity program in Goddard Auditorium
The Office of Multicultural Affairs responds to the needs
of students and the institution’s commitment to diversity.
The staff works with students to promote and encourage dialogue
between underrepresented and majority student populations.
Action
The Diversity Aspiration Statement emphasizes our efforts
as a learning community “to create social justice” and “to
treat all humans with respect, honoring human dignity.” The
Office of Multicultural Affairs affirms and supports these
aspirations by initiating intercultural communication, providing
training and workshops and bringing diverse speakers and
groups to campus.
Engagement
The Office of Multicultural Affairs provides opportunities
for Earlham’s diverse student body to engage in dialogue,
strengthening and fostering community. The aim is to
create an environment where students can take risks and express
different points of view in the pursuit of mutual understanding
and growth.
Support
The Office of Multicultural Affairs supports students by working
in conjunction with student organizations, providing a safe
space for students to share their concerns and encouraging
student leadership and collaboration. The office encourages
students to reflect on and learn about the complex set of
issues that impede social justice. The staff links underrepresented
students with information, resources and directs them to
the offices on campus that provide services such as internships,
fellowships, and study abroad opportunities.
