Our Mission
Culture
Through cultural celebrations, events, workshops and speakers, we connect with each other and with the UCR community to share our rich and diverse identity and culture.
Leadership
MESC provides incredible opportunities to learn and experience leadership. You can lead the way — from planning events, to speaking at high-profile conferences, to helping other students.
Events
The heart of MESC is the student community. Together, we celebrate our culture, participate in events, share resources, discuss current topics and promote unity.
Awareness
MESC spreads awareness about SWANA/Middle Eastern culture. We educate, dispel stereotypes, showcase multiculturalism and advocate for ME students across college campuses nationally.
