Vision
Universal participation in working to establish an intellectually vibrant and socially just community.
Mission
Grounded in the Benedictine tradition of hospitality, the Multicultural Center serves as a safe space where all Saint Anselm College students can drop in to meet new friends and enjoy relaxing conversation. It is our mission to empower students with the resources, skills, and opportunities necessary for academic achievement, leadership development, and purposeful civic engagement. Through cross-cultural dialogues and examining the issues relevant to diversity and social justice, we hope to nurture a generation of informed world citizens who find unity within our differences. Overall the Multicultural Center strives to build community, support the academic mission of the institution, and offer opportunities to promote learning and leadership outside the formal academic curriculum.
Core Values
Transformative Education
We contribute to the academic mission of the College by facilitating thought-provoking and participatory learning experiences.
Community
We actively strive to build a positive, inclusive environment by encouraging all students (regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, socioeconomic status, etc.) to visit the Center, participate in our programs, and utilize our services. Commuter students are strongly encouraged to use our resources (lounge space, lockers for storage, computers, television, and a functional kitchen area with a refrigerator and microwave) and participate in programs designed to facilitate their success and connection to the campus community.
Collaboration
We recognize that our work cannot be done alone and hope to serve as a model for students.
