Trinity University’s celebration of Latinx Heritage Month, spanning September 15 to October 15, has become a tradition that invites the campus community to celebrate Latinx and Hispanic culture. This year’s celebration is made possible by the combined efforts of the Mexico, the Americas, and Spain (MAS) Program, the Student Diversity and Inclusion Office (SDIO), the Humanities Collective, and the Trinity University Latino Association (TULA). The efforts of these faculty, staff, and students help everyone in our community find their sense of belonging and encourage us to engage in conversations, listen, and learn, all while having fun together. 

The SDIO will kick off the month-long celebration with the Mercado, with food, vendors, games, and more. The MAS Program is excited to share their initial work on their oral history project, “Conmemorando a la Comunidad: The Latinx Experience at Trinity.” And TULA will host their 4th annual Viva Las Americas, a student showcase of culture, tradition, music, and more.
