Latino Native American
What's Happening:
If you would like to volunteer for the LNACC anniversary planning committee or other initiatives, please contact us. Alumni involvement is welcomed and vital to the success of the group.
The Latino Native American Alumni Alliance exists to help connect and support alumni, promote diversity on the UI campus, and demonstrate the need for continued commitment to the Latino and Native American communities. Any UI alumnus can participate.
The UI Alumni Association is in the process of reinvigorating the Latino Native American Alumni Alliance to better provide a supportive voice for Latino and Native American students and alumni. We are seeking alumni involvement, leadership, and input to help reestablish the leadership board and plan events to help connect the Latino and Native American community.
Nancy "Rusty" Barceló Scholarship
The Nancy "Rusty" Barceló Scholarship will be awarded to University of Iowa students conducting research or producing creative projects on the history or life of Latinas in the Midwest (with preference to Iowa). The recipient should exhibit an understanding of Latino culture and knowledge of the language. Selection will be made by a committee appointed by the UI's Center for Diversity & Enrichment. Financial need is not a primary factor. The award amount may vary from year to year, depending on available funding.
