This course will examine how Latina/o spaces, places, and pracitices on the Illinois campus are constructed and contested throughout. Beginning with the student activism that led to the founding of La Casa Cultural Latina in 1974 to the present conversations around Inclusive Illinois and multiculturalism, we look at people and processes that have contributed to the Latina/o-ization of parts of campus. This course will be held in conjunction with the Ethnography of the University Project. Each student will conduct an oral history and/or ethnographic project about Latina/o space, place, and practice during the course.
