Our MAS students presented their Influencer Project this past week, and their hard work was transparent. Students chose an influencer from the LatinX community and explained how they changed the world around us. 1/2 #somosMAS

We took a trip to OLLU to experience what it feels like to take Mexican American Studies in a university! It was such an amazing, unforgettable experience. A huge thank you to Dr.Villeareal for inviting us to sit in her classroom alongside her students!
