LGBTQ Resources | Oklahoma State University

Welcome

The Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA) programs, events, initiatives and student organizations centered around the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) student experience focus on campus involvement, leadership and professional development, cultural immersions, personal development, mentorship and civic engagement.

The various programs also support students' academic success through scholarship opportunities and educational resources. Through these forums, we enrich students' collegiate experience in academic, social and cultural environments. For more information, email the Coordinator of Women's and LGBTQ Affairs.
