Org. Report LUChA de MIT by Nancy Díaz, LUChA President, MIT

Org. Report LUChA de MIT by Nancy Díaz, LUChA President, MIT

In the Fall of 2006, La Unión Chicana por Aztlán began Cena a las Seis, an event that we co-hosted with the Association of Puerto Rican students and that we hope will continue on for many years to come during MIT’s Family Weekend. We began the night with authentic Puerto Rican and Mexican dishes, followed by performances by the MIT Mariachi Internacional del Tecnológico, the Tango Club, Casino Rueda, and Dance Troupe. Overall, we felt that the 1st Annual Cena a las Seis was a great success because we were able to bring together over 150 students and family members, and had the opportunity to introduce our families to the Latino community at MIT.

We kicked off the Spring semester with our first general body meeting this past Friday. Our plans for this semester include the ECCSF Conference at Yale University, the 11th Annual Alumni Symposium, a Cinco de Mayo barbeque and softball game, and Chicano Graduation. We are looking forward to networking with other ECCSF schools at the upcoming ECCSF Conference at Yale!

¡Cuidense!
