Previously known as the Latino Cultural Society, this group changed its name to ‘OLAS’ (Organization of Latin American Students) to be more inclusive. The overarching mission is to support, empower, and advance the Latino community at Quinnipiac University. By offering culturally relevant programming and initiatives, as well as spaces which welcome all forms of Latinidad and the broader community, OLAS educates and forges solidarity between the Latino community and its allies. The goal is to foster unity, leadership, diversity, social justice, and Latino excellence for all. OLAS strives to be a welcoming “home away from home” where students can come together to learn, socialize, and build relationships in order to support one another on campus.
We are all UNA FAMILIA,
