MGA has a Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Office which is charged with the goal to "guide and coordinate efforts that support Middle Georgia State University’s Statement of Commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity; to serve as a liaison and collaborative partner in support of the institution’s values, mission, and strategic plan; to educate and create awareness in the campus community about diversity, inclusion, equity, multiculturalism, and interaction across differences in a global society."
One of the Strategic Priorities of MGA's Strategic Plan is to "foster a culture of care" and to "strengthen diversity, equity, and inclusion."
As part of the Strategic Plan, MGA developed a "Diversity Certificate pathway for students through Knight Life."
On July 30, 2020, MGA announced that, "In the wake of the violent deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, and in response to the wave of social movements and protests, the School of Arts & Letters (SOAL) took a stand and created a series in support of the ongoing fight to end racial injustices suffered by Black individuals and their communities." This series is titled the Collective Action Series. The inaugural event was "a faculty/staff discussion via Microsoft Teams of Ibram X. Kendi’s book, 'How to be an Antiracist.'"
MGA offers Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity events.
MGA has a Diversity Committee which also offers Faculty/Staff Diversity Award Nominations. The Office of DEI also has an Instagram account.
The University System of Georgia's 2022 Diversity & Inclusion Summit was held on MGA's campus on October 28, 2022. The 2022 Theme was "Diversity does not Equate to Division: Our Diversity is Our Strength".
The Office of Campus Culture and Community (formerly the Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity) "promotes institutional awareness and engagement of global perspectives, cultures, and identities in support of the mission, values, and strategic plan of Middle Georgia State University."
