MEDIA: “Recalling the ’93 Day Hall Takeover’ by Latino Students”

A story on the lecture presented at Cornell University on October 28 by CSRC director Chon A. Noriega. In the lecture, “Cornell on Trial: The University and the Creative Arts Revisited,” Noriega reflected on an exhibition he co-curated in 1993 that inadvertently exposed racial tensions on the campus concerning Latino students and faculty, and ultimately led to the expansion of the university’s Latino Studies Program and the creation of its Latino Living Center.
