Program Offered
- Minor in Chicano/a Studies
The minor in Chicano/a studies affords students the opportunity to investigate the multi-dimensional culture of the Chicano/a community in the United States. It is, by definition, interdisciplinary and seeks to provide students with a nuanced appreciation of this population. The minor offers non-majors the opportunity to investigate the historical complexities of societies and social movements and their legacies in the present. Therefore the minor serves as a primer to the scholarly appreciation of the past.听
