The LLS Symposium, LLS Speaker Series, Colloquium Series, and Alumni Lecture Series are just four of the many ways that the Department  engages the community with contemporary Latina/o Studies scholarship and creative work. Through these events we bring prominent Latina/Latino Studies scholars, artists, and writers to campus each year to present on their current projects. The lectures and symposia have focused on areas such as literature, performance art, film, social activism, history, and more.

All of these programs function as important forums for intellectual exchange on Latina/Latino issues.

See the LLS calendar for upcoming lectures and events.
