Hispanic Heritage Month

Celebrating Latinx Students and Faculty

From September 15 through October 15, we will be featuring our college’s Latinx faculty, postdocs, students, alumni, and staff as part of our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.

Led by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion in collaboration with the Office of Communications, this effort aims to inform and inspire others by shining a light on these individuals’ experiences, their accomplishments, and their motivations for pursuing careers in science.

These spotlights are compiled on a rolling basis as part of ongoing efforts to promote enhanced representation and foster inclusivity within the college.

They will also be featured in our social media (links in footer) throughout the month, providing additional opportunities for engagement.

We encourage all of our Latinx faculty, postdocs, students, alumni, and staff to share their stories via this Qualtrics survey.
