Students from Intermediate Spanish Language & Culture worked with local Mexican business owners from Danbury to research Day of the Dead traditions.

Students identify traditional offerings on the Day of the Dead Altar. Rumor has it that Dr. Bakhtiarova flew to Los Angeles for some of the items!

 

WLL ALSO SUPPORTS OUR LASO (LATIN AMERICAN STUDENT ORGANIZATION) MEMBERS AND FRIENDS!!!

Hi, everybody! Here we are in Berkshire Hall where we have our classes and faculty offices on the Midtown Campus!
