CLAS MAY 2024 NEWSLETTER

Starting last Thursday, April 25, we celebrated graduation ceremonies for our Center’s graduating class, the UCIS Certificate awardees and the Latinx Graduation ceremony before the University’s festivities took place over the weekend. Our students and graduates excelled in every area and will join professional occupations, graduate schools, the armed forces, and organizations in the US and abroad.  Graduates and their families deservedly celebrated significant milestones and great prospects. We are proud of their accomplishments (look out for the separate message featuring them).

CLAS’s Seminar and Field Trip travel component will take place in Santarém, Brazil in a few weeks. The Newsletter and Digest will pause until mid-August, though we will still send occasional missives about events and opportunities as they come up. For now, we will debrief and plan another successful Academic Year, hoping that you have a wonderful summer.

April Recap
No one fell for our April Fool's jokes about Luz Amanda Hank opening a hostel in Spain (though this is a realistic future for her) or Luis Bravo offering free tattoos to complete his dual degree in Fine Arts and Dermatology.
