About the Office

MEP pursues its mission by:

  • Investing in the development of student leaders who serve as catalysts for communication and understanding among people of all racial, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds
  • Providing supplemental support and services for ethnic minority students
  • Sponsoring programs and activities which increase awareness and appreciation for ethnic diversity.

The MEP staff promotes student development through advising the Multi-Ethnic Student Alliance (MESA) and ethnic organizations (AMIGOS, Asian Pacific American Student Organization, Black Student Awareness, and the Pacific Islander Organization). In addition, MEP coordinates the Multi-Ethnic Leadership Scholarship Program, which involves education in leadership, diversity, and discipleship with selected students who become leaders of intercultural understanding and racial reconciliation on our campus and beyond. For more information, visit the Multi-Ethnic Leadership Scholarship page.

MEP administers several other scholarship programs for the university, and provides information on scholarship, fellowship, and internship opportunities offered by outside organizations of ethnic populations. The office also sponsors various events for the campus, including GospelSing (an annual gospel concert featuring choirs from the area churches and schools), Spotlight and Heritage Month Events, workshops, a biannual diversity/leadership retreat, discussions, and other activities.
