Multicultural Student Organization

The Multicultural Student Organization (MSO) is a student-led group created to be a platform for students to focus on diversity issues that shape our world.

Our focus is to help promote positive diversity relationships on campus while impacting the campus environment for all students regardless of racial, cultural, or ethnic differences.

The Multicultural Student Organization is open to all Hawkeye students striving to make a positive difference in the lives of minority students on and off campus.

Through activities, cultural awareness discussions, and goodwill to the community, the Multicultural Student Organization will advocate for change and progress on campus and in the community.
