Does the institution make cultural competence trainings and activities available to all students?:
A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:
Current students can continue down the path of success through programs supported through the Office of Student Affairs' Multicultural Student Programs and Services (MSPS). The MSPS also works to provide students with access to programs, services, and clubs that will help them to expand and explore cultural diversity and multicultural education. Students will also find avenues to leadership growth, professional development, and academic excellence through MSPS.
•Historically underrepresented students are encouraged to develop critical thinking skills through opportunities of research, internships, and foreign travel through the Building Bridges Mentoring Program, and they stay connected with the program throughout their time at Notre Dame.
•At the beginning of their sophomore year, historically underrepresented students with a highly competitive GPA are invited to become members of the Honors Students and High Achievers Program, and during their time in the program they are encouraged to maintain a competitive academic record, conduct research with faculty, and explore a path that leads to graduate school.
Diversity Education: Practicum in Diversity Training
This course trains student presenters to act as group leaders/facilitators in the three “Contemporary Topics” rotations of the physical education program for first-year students. Each rotation involves approximately 700 students. Each student in the class will facilitate approximately three small groups during their tenure as facilitators. The course begins with a two-day retreat on campus.
