LGSA Mission



LGSA aims to promote the academic, social, and professional well-being of Latino/Hispanic graduate students at Princeton. LGSA strives to render visible issues that are relevant to the Hispanic/Latino community at large. As America's largest and most diverse minority group, Latinos have faced varied and complex obstacles in their efforts to achieve educational excellence. Social circumstances have often inhibited Latino interest in both undergraduate and particularly graduate programs. The members of LGSA aspire to implement a multi-dimensional program of support for students at all levels of the academy. LGSA will provide a space for graduate students to establish community by offering opportunities for dialogue, exchange, and support at Princeton.

How we do this:

1. Recruitment

2. Academic Support, Mentoring and Professional Development

3. Building Community through social and cultural events
