We must have information concerning their weaknesses, morals, criminal records, spouses, children, family life, educational qualifications and personal activities other than independence activities.”

CORDIALLY INVITE YOU TO THE 2ND ANNUAL

LATINAS IN THE MEDIA

MARCH 26, WEDNESDAY, THOMAS HUNTER HALL Room #105, 6:30 PM

FABULOUS LATINA WOMEN IN MEDIA SHARE THEIR SUCCESS STORIES!

“LATINAS IN THE MEDIA’ is meant to provide students the opportunity to hear from and speak with Latina women who have gained success in the media industry and to celebrate their accomplishments not just as women and as members of the Latino community, but as professionals .It is essential at a time in history when our quality of life is so greatly affected by the media and when such a small percentage of the media is produced or controlled by minorities and/or females.

REFRESHMENTS AND SNACKS WILL BE PROVIDED. THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

Please forward to anyone in your networks who may be interested in attending. Thank you.
The Latino Honor Society has been in existence at Hunter College since 1990. Founded to recognize the efforts and achievements of Latino students at Hunter College, and to encourage their growth and development as they seek to further pursue their careers, LHS also functions as a network for Latino students. We work to help members gain information and create alliances within and outside of Hunter, while striving towards academic excellence.
