Welcome and saludos


The Latinx/Hispanic Faculty and Staff Caucus supports community efforts that celebrate our diverse cultures at UNC Charlotte and in the region. Its members work to enhance the Latino/Hispanic community of faculty, staff, and students on campus.

The Caucus was first formed in Fall 2012. We hold meetings throughout the academic year and encourage any Latino/Hispanic Faculty or Staff (including Postdoctoral Fellows) and anyone interested in Latino/Hispanic issues to attend. For more information, please get in touch with our current officers, listed below.

Disclaimer: The Latinx/Hispanic Faculty and Staff Caucus is a voluntary, self-governing group of faculty and staff that does not speak on behalf of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
