UMBC Immigrant Recognition Day Planning Committee

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 10:15:58 -0500

LHFA and AAAFSC are co-organizing "UMBC Immigrant Recognition Day" again this year with student groups on campus (HLSU, SACNAS, etc.). The event is already scheduled for May 1st.

The last time we had this event in 2019, we focused on celebrating and coming together as a community to recognize the contributions immigrants make every day to UMBC. This year, we are thinking of something similar, but we also want to do "multiple" events, such as panels (students and faculty), roundtables, but also music, readings, and dances (UMBC's new Latin Dance Group is participating), as our previous celebrations.
