“The hope was to bring people together to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, but also for students to know that the Latinx Faculty and Staff Association is here to support them as they are navigating their way through college,” Diaz-Espinoza said.

Students can immerse themselves in the history, magic and tradition of mariachi music at the Mariachi Masterclass at 10 a.m. Friday in the Barfield Drawing Room. The event is being hosted by the Latinx Faculty and Staff Association and is eligible for Creative Arts Experience credit.
