Multicultural Student Services

Club Description

Multicultural Student Services (MSS) aims to promote inclusion, engagement, belonging, and success of historically marginalized students while also cultivating each UVA student’s capacity to navigate a diverse and ideologically complex world. ?We enhance the undergraduate experience through culturally relevant services, programs, community advocacy, and learning experiences meant to empower students in their identity, build community, and help students find their individual and collective voices. ?Through MSS, we work with students to develop programs offered through the Multicultural Student Center (MSC), LGBTQ Center, Latinx Student Center, and Interfaith Student Center, all located in Newcomb Hall. These important centers of student life have been designed to meet the needs of multicultural students to find community and engage in rich dialogue. The Centers offer meeting and program space for student groups, study space with computers, a comfortable lounge area, and conference rooms. These Centers are open to everyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, ability, ethnic or national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity.
