CORES/COPS Coalition Mission and History
Aim to represent minority concerns for and from the MSU community.
The history of collaboration began in 1990 when APASO formed a coalition with: the Black Student Alliance (BSA), the Coalition of Hispanic Students for Progressive Action (CHISPA)**, and the North American Indian Student Organization (NAISO) to establish the Council for Racial Ethnic Students (CORES).
