fun. Sports include softball, flag football,

Multicultural Center
The Multicultural Center is a student-initiated
facility/program celebrating both the differences
and commonalities reflected in
our culturally diverse university community.
Through education and advocacy, the center
resists oppression and creates a safe place
for all university community members to
gather.
A variety of programs and services em power
cultural groups and individuals. The center:
uses instruction, demonstrations, exhibits,
and performances to educate the university
community about similarities and
differences between existing ethnic and
non ethnic cultural groups on campus;
encourages open communication with
other community and educational organizations,
including similar programs
on other CSU campuses;
advocates cultural pride and excellence
through public discussion groups, lectures,
seminars, and workshops;
encourages the sharing of traditions,
arts, and literature through cultural
exchange;
uses mass media to attract new students
to Humboldt State.

decisions regarding activities and projects.
