Yes
A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:
Frostburg State University is a multicultural campus where diversity is highly valued. The
University’s Cultural Diversity Program is intended to help the institution more effectively recruit and retain individuals and groups that have been historically underrepresented in higher education. It is also designed to promote cultural understanding and appreciation among all members of the University community. The program establishes the following five University goals:
1. Recruit and Enroll a Growing Number of Undergraduate Minority and First-Generation
Students
2. Increase the Retention and Graduation Rates of Undergraduate Minority and First-Generation
Students
3. Enhance the Cultural Diversity of Faculty and Staff
4. Create a Campus Environment that Promotes the Valuing of Cultural Diversity
5. Promote the Understanding of International Cultures
For each goal, strategies and initiatives are identified in narrative form and summarized in an accompanying table. Many of the goals, strategies, and initiatives identified in this document to promote cultural diversity at Frostburg are drawn from the University’s Minority Achievement Plan and the work of the President’s Advisory Council on Diversity (PACD). The PACD, whose members include both faculty and staff, plays an important role in fostering a respect for diversity at the University and will continue to shape the Cultural Diversity Program in the future. The University’s Cultural Diversity Program also represents an important collaboration between Frostburg’s divisions of Academic Affairs and Student and Educational Services. The success of many of the initiatives identified in this document is dependent on this important institutional partnership.
