Diversity and Leadership Training
The mission of the Multicultural Leadership Center (MLC) is to develop student leaders who understand and embrace diversity. Specifically, the MLC offers workshops and trainings designed to prepare students to become leaders in a global society who are self-aware, culturally competent, civically engaged, and critical thinkers.
If you are unable to participate in EMBRACE, Diversity Dialogues, or other pre-scheduled MLC programs, but would still like to pursue diversity education and training, please review the list of workshops below.
Workshops will only be conducted if a minimum of eight participants confirm.
All workshops will be held in the Multicultural Leadership Center (TSU-234)

Please note : It’s our policy to start and end workshops on time.You must arrive on time (or several minutes early) and remain for the duration of the workshop.
Arriving late interrupts the facilitator and creates disruptions for the participants. This affects the quality of learning and the comfort level of the group, which in turn, inhibits discussions and prevents us from accomplish our learning objectives. Please consider this expectation when signing up for workshops.
