WSU Invites Faculty and Staff to Celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Awareness Month

A flag walk, a painting workshop, and a guided discussion led by WSU alumni are among the events the Washington State University Pullman community is invited to attend in celebration of National Hispanic Heritage Awareness Month, which runs Sept. 15 to Oct. 15.

The free events are organized by the Chicanx Latinx Student Center (CLSC) and are designed to involve faculty, staff, and students. The monthlong celebration is referred to as Latinx Heritage Month by the CLSC.

“My goal is to let everyone know the center is here to make a positive impact in the Chicanx Latinx community, as well as the entire university,” said Elvia Diaz, a retention specialist. “Everyone is encouraged to come to these events to learn more about our students and the many ways they are contributing to WSU.”
