Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Justice

Serving all Kutztown University students, our purpose is to provide activities and services focusing on the exploration of cultural and racial identity, awareness, and social exchange, as well as assist with personal and academic growth and leadership skills development. We attempt to provide a safe environment conducive to and encompassing concepts of community and unity. We invite you to join our university family.

What exactly does "multiculturalism" mean? It means the creating, guaranteeing, and encouraging of spaces in which different multicultural communities are able to grow at their own pace. At the same time, multiculturism is a public space in which these communities are able to interact and enrich the existing culture without relinquishing any part of their own culture. The result is the creation of a new community in which they recognize reflections of their own racial or ethnic identity.

The Office of Multicultural Services is an administrative department within the Division of Enrollment Management and Student Affairs. The physical location of the department is in the K.U. Multicultural Center. All operations and functions of the Center are performed through Multicultural Services, though the two terms are often used interchangeably in the community, as well as in the department.

The Center is open during the academic semester Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

You may visit the Center to attend any of our programs, study in the study lounge or resource room, meet with friends and/or just relax between classes. Some of the rooms within the Center are available to reserve meeting space for smaller events such as group gatherings or workshop presentations. Room reservation priority is given to student organizations and programs that focus on multiculturalism and diversity. If you would like to bring a class to the Multicultural Center for one of our offered trainings, please visit our Programs and Services page.

Welcome!

As part of a consortium of FDIs in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE), The Fredrick Douglass Institute at Kutztown University is committed to developing understandings of equity, diversity, and inclusion among faculty, staff, and students. Programs at the FDI are designed in alignment with Douglass' philosophies and KU's Strategic Initiative (Goal 1 and 4).

FDI Mission

The FDI at KU organizes and facilitates discussions, research, conferences, forums, and exhibits centered on racial equity, social equality, and anti-racism. Specifically, FDI programming advances Black intellectual traditions through interdisciplinary scholarship and activism in disciplines including literature, philosophy, history, STEM, criminal justice, the arts, and journalism. Douglass wrote (1857):

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.

The new FDI is a space of dynamic knowledge production, in the shared struggle towards self-actualization among Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) in our campus community and the world. In this space, we dig in and do the work.

Find an Amish Market near you

Amish markets are shopper favorites, providing a wide array of goods including foods, crafts, baked and canned goods, and even furniture and outdoor items.

Amish live in 30 states, and sell their products in many more. Use the guide below to find an Amish market in your neighborhood.

"Amish Market" can mean different things. This directory includes:

1. Venues commonly described as "Farmer's Markets" or "PA Dutch Markets", where Amish vendors sell goods a few days each week, such as those near cities like Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

2. Non-Amish vendors selling Amish foods and other Amish goods

3. Produce markets offering Amish-raised fruits and vegetables

4. Amish-run shops located in Amish communities, typically selling food and related products

NOTE: There can be a lot of difference between the businesses listed here. Some are full-fledged Amish operations; others may just carry a limited amount of Amish-made or Amish-labeled products. We've tried to give a brief description of each sharing what information we have been able to find, but it's always good to double-check the nature of a business using the contact information before traveling a long distance. As businesses change over time, we also don't guarantee that this list is 100% up-to-date. Your corrections and suggestions are welcome.
