Kappa Iota Theta – formerly known as Lipscomb University Multicultural Association (LUMA) – is offering more opportunities to get involved in the Nashville community this semester as well as creating ideas which reflect its new motto, “connecting intercultural ties.” Kappa Iota Theta begins this semester with the goal of uniting a diverse student body. Elizabeth Hayes, organization president, said its goal is to “educate students and the community about the different ethnicities here on campus.” The organization is most known for the International Square affair, which takes place during spring semester, which allows students to experience the customs and foods of other cultures.
