Celebrating 50 Years of Multicultural Excellence

University community honors half a century of the Office of Multicultural Affairs.

Homecoming Weekend was capped by a semi-formal celebration that drew 175 attendees to honor the 50th Anniversary of the Office of Multicultural Affairs. The event paid tribute to OMA leaders Sidney Buxton, Marcela Uribe-Jennings ’82, MEd ’91, Laxmi Bissoondial ’02, and the student-led Intercultural Student Alliance, and to OMA’s mission to support first-generation, low income, and ALANA/BIPOC (African, Latine, Asian, Native American and/or Black, Indigenous, People of Color) students.
