Mission 

Our mission is grounded in three pillars: academic excellence, social engagement, and diversity awareness. The Jackie Gaughan Multicultural Center and the Office of Academic Success and Intercultural Services work collaboratively with others to transform the campus into a community in which members build bridges of understanding across boundaries of race, gender, culture, socioeconomic class, sexual orientation, ability, religion, nationality, and language. Central to this vision is the premise that the development of multicultural skills and attitudes can help lead the way to self and institutional renewal and international reconciliation. 

 

Vision 

Through its programs and services, the JGMC and OASIS work collaboratively with campus and community partners to transform the campus into a community in which members build bridges of understanding across boundaries of race, gender, culture, socioeconomic class, sexual orientation, ability, religion, nationality, and language. Central to this vision is the premise that the development of multicultural skills and attitudes can help lead the way to self and institutional renewal, and international reconciliation. 

Location

We are located on the first floor of the Jackie Gaughan Multicultural Center. Our Student Lounge is a great place to meet people and relax. The second floor offers a comfortable place to study as well as a computer lab. On the third floor, you will find additional study spaces as well as offices of some of Nebraska's registered student organizations. 

All are Welcome

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has values and beliefs that fight against bigotry and racism. At OASIS, we seek to help students increase their diversity awareness and provide support for students who may feel isolated because of traits, beliefs or backgrounds. We are a place that is safe for everyone. If you should ever need to talk, please know our staff is here for you. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
