UNICA/CAIGA Letter in Support of the UCLA Chicana/o Studies Department Name Change

On November 15, 2019, the faculty of the UCLA Chicana and Chicano Studies Department will take a formal vote to change the department name to César E. Chávez Department of Chicana, Chicano and Central American Studies. We have attached UNICA’s, la Unión Centroamericana de Estudiantes, and CAIGA’s, the Central American Isthmus Graduate Association letter in support of this name change. La Gente supports this decision and we stand in solidarity with UNICA and CAIGA for their continued advocacy for this change.
