‘La Bienvenida’ event helps Latino campus groups provide welcome - University of Nevada, Reno

A “La Bienvenida” (The Welcoming) social will help the University of Nevada, Reno’s Latino Research Center gather ideas to assist and create networking opportunities for new and current Latino students, faculty and staff on campus, 4 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 29 in the William Raggio Building.

Several University student organizations, including the Latino social fraternity, Nu Alpha Kappa, and the Latina sorority, Kappa Delta Chi, will provide food items from a variety of Latin American countries. Club representatives will also answer questions about their organization’s function and mission.

“At this event, students and professors are able to meet and start a network,” said Jessie Klenke, student worker for the Latino Research Center. “Latino groups on campus can also share their upcoming events.””*
