While recognizing that terms like "Hispanic" and "Latinx" denote many heterogeneous cultures, it is important to underscore the successes, challenges, and diversity of Latinx experiences in the context of culture, diplomacy, and law in New Orleans. The speakers in this series will discuss intellectually-riveting topics, such as the history of the New Orleans Mexican Consulate, the politics promoting immigration, journeys in academia, and other pressing issues, all within the Loyola and New Orleans communities. Join us!

The panel includes:

Meet the Dean of the College of Music and Media, Kern Maass.

Meet the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. Maria Calzada.

Dr. Alecia P. Long is coming to discuss her new book Cruising for Conspirators. This event is being put on by the History Department.

We welcome Dr. Janna Saslaw and Dr. Jimbo Walsh to our Mostly Mondays faculty lecture series for a presentation on "I Know" by Seo Taiji.

Free and open to the public. Also available via Livestream on the School of Music and Theatre Arts' YouTube Channel.

Mostly Mondays continues with a presentation from Dr. Valerie Goertzen.

The talk focuses on a pocket-sized tour book prepared by one of the first professional concert agents in Europe for the world-class violinist Joseph Joachim (1831–1907). The itinerary paints Joachim’s life on tour as a succession of highly focussed vignettes, a series of instructive choices that shed light on his biography and, more generally, on the changing status of artists in the second half of the nineteenth century.
