Message from
Director
Welcome to the Multicultural
Student Center at Arizona State
University!
The Multicultural Student
Center provides a central location for students
to develop connections with other students,
faculty, and staff members with common
personal, cultural, and learning interests. We
exist to help students be as successful as
possible. We do not assume what success
means for each person, but rather serve as an
aiding partner in an individual’s ongoing
social, spiritual, intellectual, and cultural
development. We extend our collective
resources and full scope of programs, services,
and knowledge beginning with this website to
interested students.
Within this site is
information about Academic, Cultural, and
Personal Resources; Student Involvement
Opportunities; and links to multiple campus and
community resources. I encourage you to
make full use of its content.
To Students new to ASU, I
applaud your decision to continue your
intellectual journey at one of the premier
metropolitan public research universities in
the nation.
What you are engaged in now
is intensely meaningful. The college
years hugely impact the type of life that you
live. This place is the training ground
for what you will ultimately become. It
is reasonable to suggest that if you are
service-oriented in college, you will engage
community service in life. If you are
culturally curious in college, you will be
culturally informed in life. If you
respond to questions of character with
integrity in college, you will be a fair,
respected, and principled person in life.
If you approach your classes passionately and
think about each learning moment critically,
you will be a life long learner who makes
decisions with nature, social systems, and the
living and unborn in mind. I can’t
wait to see what you will become.
On behalf of the
Multicultural Student Center, we look forward
to joining you on that journey and encourage
you to visit our office in the Student Services
Building, room 394.
Respectfully,
Alonzo “AJ”
Jones
Director

Services
