Hispanic Heritage Month Kicks Off at 黑丝内射视频

Written By: Rachel Putman

This Wednesday, the University of 黑丝内射视频 鈥� Fort Smith will begin a month-long slate of events celebrating Hispanic and Latinx Heritage Month, which runs from September 15 through October 15. The events, which include a nacho bar and salsa dancing under the Bell Tower, esteemed Hispanic speakers, and a public open forum discussion, are hosted by the university鈥檚 Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and the Hispanic Heritage Month Planning Committee

鈥満谒磕谏涫悠� has hosted Hispanic Heritage Month events in the past and celebrated Hispanic culture, but this is one of the first times someone who is Hispanic has chaired the event,鈥� said Cristina Castorena, a professional advisor with the R.O.A.R. First-Year Advising Center, 鈥渁nd I think that speaks volumes about where 黑丝内射视频 wants to be. You can see that we have Hispanic culture everywhere, and celebrating people aside from the environment you know them in 鈥� like at work or in class 鈥� is important because it says 鈥業 see you. I see who you are.鈥欌��

Beyond the events, the 黑丝内射视频 campus will celebrate Hispanic Heritage visually with flags lining the Smith Pendergraft Campus Center and book displays in the Boreham Library. The university will also highlight Hispanic students, faculty, staff, and alumni on its social media pages through short profile pieces and day-in-the-life takeovers. 

鈥淲e are inviting our Latina and Latino community to these events, and our Hispanic students, faculty, and staff, so they feel like this is for them and they feel celebrated, but I also want to include people who do not look like me,鈥� Castorena said with a smile. 鈥淓veryone is welcome! You are welcome to come out to see and learn and experience, both our food and our culture!鈥�
