Hola a todos!

 

Happy Hump Day! Here are a few announcements:

-Noche Latina is almost here! For more information about Noche Latina and how you can be involved, be sure to attend the GBM tomorrow. We need you guys to make this event possible, so if you're interested in helping but can't make the GBM no problem! Just send an email to SALSA or let an E-board member know you're interested. Check out the Facebook page.

 

-1000plus is coming up so be sure to sign up here! We would love to see you guys involved! If there are any questions about signing up, don't hesitate to ask.

Haciendo Enlaces (Making Connections) is a weekly opportunity to get together and talk in Spanish about topics related to identity, culture, current events, etc.  Our primary objective is to create connections among undergraduate Spanish speakers at Carnegie Mellon (be they native speakers, heritage speakers, or intermediate-advanced students of the language).  We also aim to occasionally invite faculty/staff Spanish speakers as guests to get students connected.
