Abstracts from the Eighteenth Annual Conference National Association for Ethnic Studies, Inc

Abstract

For the third year in a row, Conference participants were greeted with snow and ice; however, the chilly weather was not indicative of the warmth generated in sessions and special events planned by Conference organizers Larry Estrada and Jeannie Ortega. The theme, Ethnicity, Justice, and the National Experience, was addressed by plenary session speakers Tom Romero and Dana Sims. Ray Rodrigues and Keith Miser presented a model for dealing with diversity on campus with the Colorado State University Perspective on Diversity. Orage Quarles III, president and publisher of the Fort ColIins Coloradan, eloquently addressed participants at the banquet with his views gained through many years of experiences with print media
