MASP is a diverse academic community for engaged students in the College of Arts and Sciences. Through scholarship funding as well as academic and community programming, we cultivate belonging, promote equity, and address barriers experienced by first-generation students, those from rural or small towns, low-income students, and others historically excluded from higher education. MASP supports its students with an emphasis on matriculation, retention, and post-graduate success. We do this by providing students with opportunities to bond as a cohort, develop their cultural competencies, and find strength, both socially and academically, in community. We also help connect students to the many resources and exciting opportunities available on ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ’s campus and beyond.ÌýÌýÌý
