L@tino Clubs and Organizations - DREAMers Fund, 2011
Scope and Contents
The Collection contains multiple Latin@ perspectives on their roles as students at Beloit College. It illustrates non-minority exposure and interaction with the Latin@ Community in Beloit (college or city). While local history on the Latin@ community is relevant, and briefly mentioned under associated material, this collection focuses more on the dynamic that exists between Beloit College and Latin@ Culture. Localized material includes: oral histories, varying student perspectives, relevant roundtable articles, uncut interviews with undocumented students, student-based diversity initiatives (Voces Latinas, Multicultural Sorority Group, DREAMers Fund etc.), larger course-based projects (Senior Seminar, Latin@ Educational Issues Conference), and a record of restricted identities.
"En Sus Propias Palabras, Latinos de Beloit: In Their Own Words, Latinos of Beloit, Community Oral History" is a series based on an oral history project led by professor Sylvia Lopez. Audio interviews are available.
