Monmouth College is a campus filled with many student organizations. These organizations help bring events to campus, upgrade certain aspects of campus life and offer opportunities for students to get involved. These organizations encourage interactions between a diverse number of students from all different backgrounds.

On Saturday, Feb. 9, the Seeking Alliances through Leadership and Diversity (SALAD) program will be coming to the Monmouth College Campus. SALAD is a group that provides different workshop experiences for student leaders on college campuses.  The main goal of the SALAD program is to teach interested students how to better lead and serve a diverse campus community.

Trained guides will be sent to the Monmouth College campus to lead students in a day of different exercises and discussions. These different discussions and activities will involve topics of stereotypes, misconceptions, and other various problems that prevent the numerous and diverse student organizations from cooperating together. Through this program, students will be taught to make a plan of action that will keep all the student organizations on campus working together for a better campus community.

Students will have the opportunity to get to know some  of their peers, who they otherwise  might not have the chance meet, and discuss and tackle issues that face the College community and other students.  Space is limited for this event, and those wishing to attend should send a reservation e-mail to lcoghill@monm.edu in order to verify their attendance.
