The Intercultural Center at Monmouth University (ICMU) cultivates a campus environment where all its members can thrive equitably, with dignity, and a sense of belonging.
Since its opening in 2019, the Intercultural Center has been coordinating engagement opportunities that include:
ICMU's efforts support the academic, social, and professional success of historically underrepresented campus community members, including but not limited to, People of Color, LGBTQIA+, first-generation, low-income, international, and religious minority members of Monmouth University. Additionally, ICMU aims to build allyship and understanding across differences.
Furthermore, ICMU promotes university-wide shifts towards diversity, inclusion, and respect by fostering a sense of shared responsibility for enacting equity within our diverse community of students, faculty, staff, administration, neighbors, and alumni. ICMU does this through policy/practice consultation, campus climate assessment, professional development, grant-making/co-sponsorships, committee service, and general collaboration.
