National Hispanic Heritage Month begins September 15 and runs through October 15. At Marist, over 12% of all students are of Hispanic heritage. We celebrate our students and all of their contributions to make our community better for everyone who is a part of it. 

In recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, the College is planning some special programming. Later this week, the Office of College Activities is organizing screenings of the film In the Heights. Following these screenings, the Center for Multicultural Affairs has invited Marist alumna Marisel Herrera ’94, an educator, motivational speaker, and author, to speak on campus regarding the film. Marisel’s talk is entitled “First Gen, On Fire & Soaring Higher: Insights from In the Heights,” and it will take place on Thursday, September 23 at 6 p.m. in Student Center 3101. She will also have copies of her first book, Puerto Rican Goldilocks, available for purchase. In addition, members of the Marist community should be on the lookout for the Library’s special book display and social media posts throughout the month. 

The Marist community is a richer and more vibrant place when all of its cultures are represented and celebrated.
