Latin Students - Hola!
While many schools already have associations for
Latin-American students, these organizations tend to be geared more
towards American students who share a common ancestry in Latin
America but who have been living in the United States
for all or most of their lives. And while these organizations
still serve as excellent resources for
students from Latin America who are in the U.S. to study, they may not always be
enough. Those who speak little
or no English and who have no experience living in the
United States, may benefit more from forming alliances with others in their exact situation before assimilating into
more traditional Latin-American student
organizations.
It takes a special kind of motivation to create a
new student organization on campus and students from
Latin-America who wish to join an organization comprised
of foreign students studying in the United States from
elsewhere are more likely to have to create something new- than anyone
else! There are so few organizations available of this
type that we at Foreign-Student-Union.Com urge those of
you who have left homes in Latin America to study in the
United States to form groups, alliances, and to create
school-recognized organizations!
