Student Views

Student Views help showcase the cultural and academic experiences of students who have spent time in Latin America or have engaged with Latin American communities in the U.S. Entries can take a variety of forms, from narrative stories of personal adventure to academic descriptions of research findings, and everything in between!

Student Views Submissions

Welcome to Student Views! We invite Harvard and other students—undergraduate, graduate and recent alumni—to submit 1,500-word articles, published weekly.

We are looking for four types of articles:

—Write about your experience in a Latin American country or a Latinx neighborhood. DRCLAS internships preferred, but not necessary.  

—Tell us about your academic research, your work on your thesis or a special project in language that people who are not in your field will understand. Anecdotes are encouraged. How did you get interested in the topic? What do you want to learn going forward?

 —Write about personal issues of identity that reflect the diversity of the Latin American or Latinx experience.

 —Reviews of plays, movies, art, music about Latin America or Latinx themes.

 If you are interested in submitting an entry, email jerlick@fas.harvard.edu!
