It’s an opportunity for LVC students to learn about Hispanic heritage outside of the classroom.

On Monday, Oct. 18, at 4 p.m., Dr. Ivette Guzmán-Zavala, professor of Spanish, will host a guest speaker over Zoom.

Since 2010, Dr. Guzmán-Zavala has planned this event to celebrate Latinx heritage during Hispanic Heritage month. This year, the speaker is Dr. Nicole M. Guidotti-Hernández.

Dr. Guidotti-Hernández’s presentation, “Borderlands Intimacies: Spatial and Cultural Clashes Post Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo,” will be about the US/Mexico border. She will also discuss the role of borders in Latina/o studies.

Dr. Guidotti-Hernández graduated from Cornell University with a Ph.D. in English and Latina/o Studies. She currently teaches English at Emory University.

Students and faculty must register in advance here.
