In This Section
The office of Multicultural Student Life helps to foster a welcoming community by providing support and educational opportunities for all students. More specifically, we pride ourselves on our commitment to educating students and promoting the importance of inclusive hospitality through programs and mentorship that reflect our millennia-old Benedictine values.
What is Inclusive Hospitality?
Inclusive hospitality is a concept rooted in the belief that all people share in the dignity of being made in God’s image and likeness, recognizing that every human life is sacred. It builds on St. Benedict's mantra to "welcome all as Christ," regardless of socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs, race, or ethnicity.
The Office of Multicultural Student Life aides in helping students explore these differences in a safe, positive and nurturing environment. We encourage students to understand and have respect for one another—creating a welcoming and nurturing community for all those seeking to unite themselves under our mission.
