Hispanic/Latiné Heritage Month (Mes de la Herencia Hispana)

Unidos, Somos Más (Together, We Are More)

In recognition of National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 – October 15) the Office for Hispanic Initiatives celebrates the University’s diverse and dynamic Latiné community with a series of events focusing on both culture and challenges, while commemorating Latiné Pride.

The theme for the 2026 Hispanic/Latiné Heritage Month will be: Unidos, Somos Más (Together, We Are More). Selected by the National Council of Hispanic Employment Program Managers (NCHEPM), this is the official national theme used across federal agencies, schools, and many institutions.

As Associate Provost for Hispanic Initiatives, Dr. Katia Paz Goldfarb, explains: 

“This month gives us an opportunity to share, recognize and celebrate de donde venimos y a donde vamos (where we come from and where we are going) as an intrinsic part of the society.”
