Latina/o Studies offers new way to connect with alumni
By Kathy Hovis
A new Friday gathering in the Latina/o Studies Program (LSP) will connect students to alumni with varied career paths.
“Fridays with Alumni” kicks off Jan. 31 featuring Kim Cardenas '17 & Joseph De Los Santos '19 joining by Zoom. Students will gather in the LSP program offices to join the conversation, but they can also participate by Zoom.
“Cornell played a transformative role in our trajectory, empowering us to harness our skills and talents to contribute to the world. As alumni, we’re eager to pay it forward. We want to help the next generation and share lessons gleaned from our successes, and from our struggles," said Kety Esquivel '97, president of the Cornell Latino Alumni Association (CLAA), co-sponsor of the new series. "Countless alumni attest to the extraordinary impact of LSP, and the critical role that LSP directors, affiliated faculty, and staff had in folks thriving academically and personally at Cornell. We’re excited to partner with them on this endeavor.”
