TARGET #1:
CULTURAL PROGRAMMING | In an effort to support the College's value of "a dedication to diversity that values the richness of human society as a divine gift," ALANA provides a variety of activities to improve cultural awareness and the appreciation of the uniqueness of the individual. We coordinate campus-wide events such as: speakers, cultural heritage month celebrations and forums. |
TARGET #2:
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT | Loyola's mission is to prepare students to "lead, learn and serve in a diverse and changing world." One of our goals as an office is to provide ALANA students with the opportunity to develop as leaders. We host a leadership retreat for new officers of ALANA Clubs as well as provide sponsorship to them to attend a variety of conferences. |
TARGET #3:
RETENTION | ALANA implements strategies to ensure the success and retention of our students. We host a Pre-Orientation Program entitled, Multicultural Awareness Program (MAP) for first-year students, Academic Nights as well as the ALANA Mentoring Program (AMP). |
TARGET #4:
ADVOCACY | ALANA serves as an advocate for any person on campus who has encountered discrimination or an act of inequality. We will intervene and provide the person with the appropriate steps to resolve the issue. |
TARGET #5:
EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES | We also maintain a resource library, which includes DVDs, VHS tapes, magazines and reference books. If you are looking for a space to hold a meeting the Claver Multicultural Center would be perfect! Contact our Administrative Assistant for more information. |
