PROGRAMS AND EVENTS

Our programs and events promote inclusion and highlight the diversity of the Latinx identity. 

Latinx Heritage Month 2022!



This year’s Latinx Heritage Month was one for the books! La CASA hosted and collaborated with campus partners to host events promoting our theme for this year’s heritage month, “Unidos: Inclusivity for a Stronger Community.” Our committee and student staff team worked tirelessly to host the best LHM USC has ever seen!

Meet the Staff Event!

La CASA’s Student Staff team invites all students to our center for a meet and greet event where students can not only meet our center staff, but each other. This event promotes unity and inclusivity, and is always a highlight of the year with the delicious food we serve!

Loteria Event



La CASA’s Loteria event was a success during the fall 2022 semester! Students were invited to the center for an afternoon of Loteria, food, and prizes! Congratulations to our winners.

Latinx Graduate Celebration

Continuing the tradition since its inception in 1980, the Latinx Graduate Celebration takes place the night before USC Commencement. It celebrates graduating students’ personal and academic achievements in the spirit and traditions of our beautiful Latinx culture.

Latinx Empowerment Conference

This conference aims to support the research, academic success, and social justice activism of USC students. It provides Latinx students a formal, yet supportive setting to present one’s research.

Open House

 Our Open House, usually hosted every semester, is an opportunity to welcome new students into the community. We invite student leaders all across campus to share about ways to get involved and share community building opportunities.

SEIP Welcome
