Welcome to the Office of Multicultural Affairs!



The Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA) is a resource available to the Fordham University campus community. OMA upholds the University’s mission to honor and revere the dignity and uniqueness of each person, in keeping with the Jesuit and Catholic fundamentals of faith, hope and love. OMA fosters and promotes the formation of an inclusive campus culture and learning environment in which each member of the Fordham University family is welcomed and valued. OMA provides a variety of resources to help facilitate an engaged campus community that proactively explores topics of diversity, including race and ethnicity, gender, culture, sexual identity, socioeconomic status, religious orientation, ability, international concerns, social justice and oppression.  Working collaboratively with student organizations, University departments, faculty, academic offices and others, OMA develops creative programs and projects designed to enhance competent intercultural interaction and engagement. Programs sponsored by the OMA includes the Sustained Dialogue Series, deeper dialogues, the Diversity Peer Leaders Program, and the LGBT and Ally Network of Support. Fordham University community members are encouraged to get involved and contact OMA for additional information on available multicultural programs and services.
