Latino Leadership - MSA

Multicultural Student Affairs (MSA) is committed to educating the UNG community about the history and culture of Latino/Hispanic people. In addition, MSA seeks to develop Latino/Hispanic leaders to serve the local community and beyond.

MSA prepares students for leadership and service by planning, developing, and implementing programs that:

develop oral and written communication skills, creative and critical thinking and intercultural competence;
promote an understanding and appreciation of various cultures;

develop specific knowledge and skills needed for the pursuit of professional careers and/or graduate study; and
help develop character by encouraging self-confidence, inclusivity, ethical behavior, academic excellence and a commitment to social justice.

These programs are executed by bilingual staff through the following services:

Goizueta Foundation Scholarship: Leadership development opportunities and awards of up to $3,000 (open to all students regardless of immigration status).
Personalized advising tailored to each student’s academic and social needs, including referrals to university support services such as advising, financial aid, student clubs, counseling, and much more!
