Program in Latin American Studies

The water pipe on my street broke in October 2018 and was repaired in February 2019. During these four months, water gushed under the pavement and then broke through, leaking for about 4 feet before joining the sewers, which were right next to it. At night, we could hear the deafening noise of this short but turbulent river.
A leading voice in Latin American studies, Rossana Reguillo has given us a new vocabulary for understanding the ultra-contemporary forms of violence that shape not only her native Mexico, but which have come to condition global politics and visual culture in the twenty-first century.
On February 7, Professor Díaz-Quiñones received the Pace Center for Civic Engagement’s Faculty Service Award.
This exhibition presents more than fifty Mexican retablos, folk paintings dedicated to Christ, the Virgin Mary, or saints to commemorate a miraculous event.
A student-led workshop open to all undergrads, grad students, faculty, and guests who are interested in Latin American studies. All disciplines and backgrounds are welcome.
Gustavo Dudamel—the 2018-2019 Artist-in-Residence—will come to campus in a range of roles that showcase his dedication to revolutionizing music's capacity to bring people together and serve as a platform for world change.
