CMASS
The Center for Multicultural Advancement and Student Success (CMASS) supports the student success and sense of belonging of first-generation, students of color, multiracial students, foster youth and low-income students. CMASS fosters support through Success Coaching, Graduate School Preparation, and cultural engagements.
If you have been part of CMASS or one of its previous affinity programs such as C.C.E.B.M.S., the Bilingual Collegiate Program, Native American Student Support Services, or the United Asian Learning Resource Center, we encourage you to join us today and tomorrow to help us fundraise to support our student needs!
This year CMASS will be fundraising to create an Endowment to provide educational funds and support to affiliated underrepresented students. Our endowment goal is $25,000 and we are so close! CMASS has been working toward this initiative for a few years, and we are more than ready to continue this journey with you. Every donation counts!
- Success Coaching is a service offered to undergraduate students affiliated with CMASS. Coaching is an asset-based model of identifying goals and action plans to accomplish academic and personal aspirations. Students meet with their success coach as many times as needed for ongoing support and referrals.
- Each One Reach One Mentoring Program provides mentorship to students pursuing graduate school. Students in this program participate in writing workshops, network with graduate students and receive feedback on their admission application materials.
- Cultural Connections happens every year on the first Thursday of the fall semester to welcome students to campus. This event features cultural food samples, entertainment, raffles, and networking with faculty, staff, and campus resources
The Cultural Centers support a sense of belonging by affirming the cultural expression, pride, and engagement of students of color through programs that celebrate cultural traditions, and deepen students’ understanding of their own and others’ multifaceted identities.
- Josephine White Eagle Cultural Center is a gathering place for Native and Indigenous students within the Five College community
- The Latinx American Cultural Center welcomes students that identify with the Hispanic diaspora
- Malcolm X Cultural Center is a multipurpose space that celebrates the identities of the Afro American diaspora through various events
- Yuri Kochiyama Cultural Center It is a hub for students that identify with the Asian diaspora
- Senior Recognition is an award night to celebrate the academic accomplishments of our graduating seniors.
