Welcome to the Office of Diversity Programs and Services!
The Office of Diversity Programs and Services supports our diverse student and faculty population here at George Mason University. We are committed to the success of all members of the Mason community.
Throughout the year, we sponsor a variety of programs for students and faculty, including lectures, concerts, awards, and seminars. We work specifically with African Heritage, Hispanic/Latino, Asian/Pacific American, American Indian, and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Questioning populations.
Highlights
- Asian Pacific American Heritage Month: March 22 - May 3rd. See our calendar for more details.
Words from Our Students
"George Mason University faculty, staff, and administration do not only emphasize the meaning of the word diversity, but they also implement diversity into
every aspect of learning and leadership."
- Alkesh, Graduate Student,

"I think George Mason is its own melting pot - the mélange of ethnic backgrounds are represented daily through the cultural programming and
social events you see on campus. I love the diversity at Mason and that is one reason why I decided to come here."
