African-American Student Organizations - Preview

Michigan State University is home to 650 registered student organizations throughout campus. A part from the average African-American student on campus, minorities are a part of these student organizations. 

Michigan State University Senior Curtis Mattison is a member of three student groups on campus including Kappa Alpha Psi, Black Student Alliance and E.L.I..T.E Men. 

“I love being a member of my organizations. Being a part of these orgs not only builds me as a person, but gives me the opportunity to lend as much knowledge to the next person as I can,” said Mattison.

Michigan State University undergraduate alumni and current doctoral student, Maria Martin is also a strong advocate for student organizations like African-American and African Studies Department located in Wells Hall. 

"As a department we do a lot of community engagement, founded on core themes." Said Martin.
"Multicultural, inclusive and intellectual studies are used to connect students and community involvement." 

Michigan State University Sophomore, Autumn Harrington benefits most from her student organization, Dream Team; as it helps her develop cultural understandings.
