The Department of Sociology and the Dartmouth Association of Latino Alumni (DALA) invite you to a virtual conversation with Dr. Aidé Hernández (IG: @gradconmigo), a sociologist whose research examines the experiences of Latinas in graduate and professional programs and the strategies that foster academic, professional, and personal success.

Moderated by Dr. Anna Cruz ’07, this talk will explore:
• How institutions can better support Latino/a graduate and professional students.
• The role of cultural affinity groups, Latino/a faculty mentorship, and family-inclusive programming.
• Strategies for building peer support outside of institutional initiatives.

Dr. Hernández’s work highlights both the power of institutional support and the importance of grassroots, student-led networks that uplift and empower Latina scholars. We hope you’ll join this important and timely conversation.
