Multicultural Student Organization

Inclusive Engagement & Understanding

The Multicultural Student Organization (MSO) is a student-led group that focuses on bringing together students from different backgrounds. Our mission is to create a welcoming campus where every student feels valued and included, no matter their cultural or ethnic background.

We are dedicated to providing a space for respectful conversations and activities that promote understanding and respect. We believe working together can make the campus experience better for everyone.

Membership

Membership is free and open to all Hawkeye students who want to help create a supportive and inclusive environment.

Our activities and discussions aim to broaden cultural perspectives and make a positive impact on both the campus and the community. Through our efforts, we strive to promote unity and growth at Hawkeye College.
