RIC First Year Seminar Takes Students on a Walk Through Local Latinx History
David Ramírez, assistant professor at the RIC Department of Modern Languages, teaches a first year seminar called “¿Dónde está mi gente? Latinx Culture in the US.” It’s part of the General Education Program at RIC, intended to immerse freshman students into college life. “The idea of this seminar is to invite students to explore, celebrate, question, and reimagine Latinx culture in the U.S.,” explains Ramírez. “Students can complete assignments in English or Spanish and in class they can speak either language. We are code-switching the whole time”.
