Welcome to the Intercultural Affairs Office (ICA) at Pepperdine University. The ICA Office is proud to serve as one of the many avenues on campus whereby students can gain the knowledge and skills necessary to become culturally competent.

The ICA Office is comprised of ten student interns who develop programs designed to educate and challenge the Pepperdine community with regard to such topics as the environment, gender issues, international issues as well as Latino, Asian-American, and African-American cultures. This office also has research assistants to enhance the level of content we offer and a graphic designer to enhance the level of professionalism in our publicity materials.

Feel free to peruse this web site. You will find our calendar, where you can find past and upcoming programs. In addition, you will find our purpose and mission statements, as well as information about leadership opportunities. Lastly, you will find information about student organizations affiliated with the ICA Office and a link to our University Diversity web site. Suggestions are always welcome, and you are always invited to get involved with the work we do. Simply call or email me directly. My contact information can be found below.

I am extremely proud to be involved with leading this office as we seek to create and sustain a healthy and culturally competent community.
