Carroll University
Office of Multicultural Affairs

Advocacy. Mentorship. Support. Transformative in nature, the Office of Multicultural Affairs exists to challenge and replace preconceived notions with well-informed facts in regard to issues of identity, culture, power and influence. Through intercultural programming, diversity initiatives, and partnering with off-campus agencies to provide pre-college and mentoring opportunities, the Office of Multicultural Affairs enhances the cultural competence across campus. This expands the cultural literacy and enriches the intellectual, spiritual, ethical and moral development of each and every member of the Carroll community and beyond.

Building a Diverse Community

Understanding that diversity encompasses much more than race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation, we help prepare all members of the Carroll community to thrive in today's reality, a world in which the ability to successfully navigate difference is a requirement and not an elective.
