“For the past 10 years, Latino/a Studies has been gradually gaining a presence on campus, but it has lacked a distinguished figure on its faculty to anchor it.
This August, however, the University attracted José Saldívar, a professor of English and literature, from the University of California at Berkeley to be the new director of Latino/a Studies.
Saldívar, who was the director of the Department of Ethnic Studies at UC-Berkeley, has written several books on American literature and won numerous awards for his work in literary criticism.”
