Office of Diversity and Inclusion Cupcake Mixer

Cupcake Mixer
As a new semester begins and Tarleton students arrive to campus, the stress associated with all the excitement can begin to be seen. Some students handle it well. Others can be seen idly lingering, offering a confused facial expression that borders between panicky and disoriented. Will their college experience be as pleasant as they always hoped? Is this University even the right place for them? Here at the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, we strive to optimize the transition and experience at Tarleton State by providing students with a safe and accepting environment where they can ponder and discuss questions like these.  

This year “ODI” immediately began working toward this goal by hosting our first ever Cupcake Mixer. A smashing success, many students attended. Although some of them came simply searching for free cupcakes, all of them discovered the resources and support that the Office of Diversity and Inclusion can provide. We even had a visit from the purple poo!
