The purpose of the SFA Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA) is to create an environment where all students feel welcome. We create networks of support for students that provide opportunities for meaningful cross cultural interactions and learning experiences that promote respect for diversity. We work with student organizations to host cultural celebrations and activities that are fun, educational and that work to enhance our students’ ability to success in a global community.
OMA is much more than a physical location on campus but host a spirit of family support and unity among the SFA community. Those students whom take advantage of the OMA staff will find mentors and lifelong friendships that challenge and support the development of young adults through the college experience. OMA host student organizations such as NAACP, Organization of Latin Americans (OLA) and Lumberjack Cultural Association (LCA) just to name a few. Many of the cultural events throughout SFA’s campus are developed from OMA. If you will, open your mind to other cultural OMA is the place for you!
