Purpose
Student Programming at MSP is focused on enriching the student academic experience through educational and social activities.
Our goal is to create opportunities for students to have fun, be creative, and deepen their connection to each other and to the larger MSP community.
Fundraising for local nonprofit organizations is an essential part of Programming. Throughout the academic year, students have the opportunity to support organizations such as HAVEN, Sanctum House, The Metta Yoga Project, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, Affirmations, Micah 6 Community, and more.
Monthly Programming Model
Our Monthly Programming Model creates a direct connection between programming activities and academic material to spark creativity and foster a deeper connection with the key tenets of humanistic psychology.
