KALEIDOSCOPE, the newly re-designed Multicultural Leaders Retreat is an intensive leadership and diversity immersion experience for UTA student leaders!

Diversity is like a kaleidoscope with its complex pattern of constantly changing colors and designs in a common environment. During our KALEIDOSCOPE program, we hope to broaden each individual’s scope of understanding of the complex combination of cultures and people that are all part of the UTA Maverick community.

The purpose of the program is to foster dialogue about diversity issues in a meaningful and powerful way while helping to empower students to be leaders in a diverse community. This 2 ½ day retreat will provide participants the opportunity to engage in thought-provoking and team building activities.

The goals of KALEIDOSCOPE are to…

• Create an atmosphere for open dialogue on multiculturalism

• Increase personal awareness of one’s impact on his/her community

• Strengthen knowledge of diversity issues affecting the campus and community

• Promote a deeper understanding of and respect for others

• Encourage coalition building amongst organization leaders

• Cultivate skills and potential to be effective servant leaders

Eligibility:
A select group of culturally based student organization presidents and representatives, Outstanding Multicultural Maverick award recipients, as well as, Maversity Graduates will be invited each year.
