Celebrating Latine Hornets
The Serna Center is excited to launch "Celebrating Latine Hornets," a new campaign recognizing students, faculty, and staff with a demonstrated record of supporting the Latine community through teaching, research, and service at Sacramento State! We invite you to nominate (or self-nominate) a member of our campus community who has made a meaningful impact—whether through leadership, scholarship, service, or advocacy. Honorees will be featured on the campus screens and the Serna Center’s social media as part of our effort to highlight and celebrate the diverse achievements of the Latine community. Help us shine a spotlight on the amazing Hornets who make Sacramento State a stronger, more vibrant community!Nominate Now!
