Our Spaces
We oversee two dedicated spaces: the Multicultural Lounge on the third floor of Sarratt in Suite 335 (across from The Pub), which houses our offices, and the Multicultural Community Space (MCS) in the West End neighborhood on campus.

Our spaces serve as hubs for fostering connections, dialogue, and collaboration among students from various backgrounds. Through our comprehensive approach, we strive to create an environment where every individual feels valued, empowered, and inspired to make a difference.
