Conference links university, Latino community - “Connecting Resources: the Latino/a community and UW-Madison,” - Madison, Wisconsin

“The Steering Committee of the Latina/o Faculty Staff Association (LAFSA) will host a conference, “Connecting Resources: the Latino/a community and UW-Madison,” on Thursday, Nov. 16, at the Memorial Union.

The event will include workshops focusing on many facets of life for the Latino community. “The university has a tremendous amount of resources available to the community and those who pay taxes,” says Sandy Magana, professor of Chicano Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. “There is a lack of knowledge, however, of what is available to the Latino population.”"
