  • To advocate representation of Chicano/Chicana and Latino/Latina within the University community and administrative structures, as well as within the community at large.
  • To inform Chicano/Chicana and Latino/Latina students about all those issues that affect our education and the general well-being of our communities.
  • To assist in the recruitment, retention and graduation of Chicano/Chicana and Latino/Latina students at the University of Minnesota.
  • To work closely with the academic communities and other external community agencies to more fully achieve our mission.
