Part of the Division of Student Affairs, the Office for Intercultural Engagement and Leadership is located on the Nebraskan Student Union’s first floor, on the east side of the building. The mission of the Office for Intercultural Engagement and Leadership, also known as IEL, is to promote environments that are affirming, welcoming, equitable, and inclusive at the University of Nebraska at Kearney, with the goal of advancing student belonging and growth. Our commitment to equity, belonging and leadership is the shared responsibility of students, staff, and faculty, and must be supported and guided by all on campus.

The office serves currently enrolled students in defining and fulfilling personal and educational goals.

Educational, cultural, and social programs are open to all students, faculty, and staff at UNK. Our student groups plan events to celebrate various social and educational cultural events throughout the year. No eligible university student may be denied membership on the basis of race, creed, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, parental status, or disability.
