Nothing to lose, Everything to Gain

Diversity and Multicultural Student Services was in the house this monday, and I'm still being fed off the energy. Having sister departments do a show together is bound to be interesting, -full of laughs, banter, uplifting speech, and more laughing.

Asst. Director Melanie Dixon; Scholar Kenneth De Weese; and Intern Kathleen Steppe gave a beautiful, luminescent, spotlight on DMSS, and its ability to retain students who are low income, first generation, and from diverse communities and backgrounds by building a community on campus, financially empowering students, and providing "life" advising.
