Corona Virus Digital Program and Student Support Updates

The Office of Multicultural Affairs is available to support students during this difficult transition period onto online instruction. There are a few ways we will be doing this.

OMA is working with both our Women’s Herstory Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month student committees to provide increased educational social media campaigns and some virtual programs and events to maintain student engagement.

The office will also be hosting various weekly student engagement opportunities including "Get to know OMA" on Instagram, Diversity Student Hangouts on Zoom, and Digital Dialogues focused on different topics.

For updates event updates, follow us on Instagram @FordhamOMA or email us based on your campus to be added to our newsletter. Students can also communicate with the OMA staff via the same emails below if there are general questions or concerns.
