Learning from the highly successful Nebraska Symposium on Motivation, the Center
has established the MSU Symposium on Multicultural Psychology which will consist
of an invitational conference that will eventually be published as a book. The
topic for the MSU Symposium will rotate among the various research networks and
it will be held in the Fall on a biennial basis.
