The Office of Student Leadership, Involvement, and Inclusion (SLII), located in MBSC 113, supports a wide variety of programming for students including unique opportunities to experience culturally rich identities that represent the UNO community. As faculty, you are in a great position to share information with students regarding affinity groups (e.g., Black Excellence, Intertribal Council, Association of Latino American Students, and the Asian Student Union) and promote these upcoming spring observances.

Annual Wambli Sapa Memorial Powwow - A traditional celebration honoring the legacy of a prominent Ponca leader and respected elder (April)
UNO students were awarded over $265,000 in grants in 2022-23. Not only did this contribute to UNO’s impressive $42 million in external funding for the year (an increase of nearly 14%), but it also served as a great way to engage students and impact their learning.
Student research will be showcased at UNO’s Annual Student Research and Creative Activity Fair on March 22. Learn more about this event and view the top projects from last year on the Activity Fair webpage.
