U of M Anti-Racism
Racism is deeply entrenched in our academic institutions. The UMGSA has a role to play in contributing toward an anti-racist environment where all students are recognized, valued, respected and treated fairly.
Please feel free to contact our VP Services and Support vpss@umgsa.org about anti-racism in the UMGSA.
