7th Annual Latinx Heritage Month Banquet hosted by PODER:Saturday, October 1st, @7:00pm, Emerson Suites (Campus Center). A continued tradition since the founding of Poder, the Latinx Banquet is the largest even during the scheduled month of events. The Banquet echo’s the month’s theme of “Cuidense”: Take Care of Yourselves. After a powerful and impactful visit in the fall of 2015, Carlos Andres Gomez will return to Ithaca as a featured banquet guest performer. Through our programs and events, we hope to expand the cultural competence of the Ithaca College Community through awareness and appreciation of Latin American culture and its influence and contributions to American culture. Our events are open to the entire Ithaca College family as we aim to honor, show pride and respect for Latinx Heritage. This event is sponsored by PODER, a student organization dedicated to uniting students of Hispanic/Latino descent at Ithaca College, fostering and promoting diversity and awareness of Hispanic/Latino culture on campus, creating an environment in which students will be afforded the opportunity to learn about themselves as individuals, while also learning about their cultural history, developing Latino/Hispanic student leaders, and motivating Latino/Hispanic students to excel academically, socially adapt to the Ithaca College community, and ultimately find a place to call casa (home).
