Multicultural Educational Resources

If you are a student or staff/faculty member of West Virginia State and you are interested in diversity issues, or you are looking for resources on a particular diversity topic, please contact our office. The Office of Multicultural Affairs has developed a video library, as well as a print library, with materials available for checkout and review. You will find an inventory of our resources below.

Our office also sponsors various special issues groups to further empower or encourage their members in their endeavors. Currently sponsored groups include: SAGA (Straight And Gay Alliance), Large and Loving It (a size acceptance group), and Single Fathers (a support and resource group for single fathers). If you would like more information about these sponsored groups, or about starting a new one, please email guillory@wvstateu.edu or call 766-3084.
