Yes

A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:

The Social Justice Summit is held each February. Formerly known as the Multicultural Leadership Summit, this program is now in its thirteenth year and continues to provide students with the opportunity to increase their awareness surrounding issues of inclusion and to develop action plans that will assist them in being agents of change on campus. Registration is free and open to ISU students.

In addition, The NCORE-ISCORE Project consists of a delegation of Iowa State University students, faculty, and staff who attend the National Conference on Race and Ethnicity in Higher Education annually. Conference participants will disseminate information gathered from NCORE at ISCORE, the Iowa State Conference on Race and Ethnicity. ISCORE seeks to bring the more salient ideas and concepts of the national conference to Iowa State University, add local perspectives, and develop and enhance ISU student, faculty, and staff awareness of racial and ethnic issues in higher education around the country.
