Student Testimonials: "Ser culto para ser libre. To be educated is to be free -José Martí The above quote represents how my education in the LALS program has opened my mind to a deeply important and complex demographic in our country as well as abroad. This program does not only require a learning of Latino and Latin American phenomenon, but also an examination of one's self and a reassessment of the assumptions that one has made throughout their lifetime in order to form a more concrete and accurate understanding. It is this understanding between cultures that sets us free from stereotypes and traditional images, and lets us see things more clearly. ~Jeff Miller ."
