The Hispanic Society at St. Thomas University is a student-led organization dedicated to celebrating Hispanic cultures, fostering community, and promoting inclusivity on campus.
Our mission is to create a welcoming space for all students — regardless of background, language proficiency, or cultural identity, who are interested in engaging with Hispanic cultures and the Spanish language.
We believe that culture is a bridge. Through shared experiences, music, food, dialogue, and education, we strengthen community and encourage intercultural understanding.
Our Values:
• Inclusion and belonging
• Cultural celebration and respect
• Academic collaboration
• Community engagement
• Leadership and student empowerment
Recent Initiatives and Events:
• Co-organizing Hispanic Day in collaboration with the Spanish Department
• Latin Dance Night featuring salsa, merengue, and bachata lessons
• Hispanic Lunch in collaboration with Holy Cross
• Telenovela Night exploring Latin American media and storytelling
• Cultural discussion nights and community-building gatherings
The Hispanic Society welcomes students from all programs and backgrounds. Whether you are fluent in Spanish or simply curious about Hispanic cultures, you belong here.
Join us in celebrating diversity, connection, and community.
