Multicultural Affairs
Assessment Report
Building relationships that
lead to success.
Mission
To assist in the student development of targeted
multicultural students (African American, Native
American, Asian American with a particular emphasis on
the Hmong population, and Latinos/Latinas), students
that are self identified as ‘Disadvantaged’ (First
generation college student, low income, LD, etc.),
students that are identified as Nontraditional (24 years of
age or older; married, divorced, widowed; have
dependents; veterans; or stopped out of college for one
semester), students that identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender or questioning. We are to aid in this
development with an emphasis on getting students
connected to the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point
(UWSP) and in supporting their learning activities.
