Because of this, Utahans are faced with the question of how to adjust to this change. The Latin American Club seeks to help the UVSC community understand the issues involved, and to make people aware of the presence of Latinos. The club was founded as a way for Latinos to get together and have fun with each other, but club president, Ruth Galvez, stresses the point that the club is not only for LatinAmericans. "We want people," she said. Another reason for the club is to retain Latin-American students at UVSC. Club members want other Latinos to know that there is friendly support available to them and that they are not alone. Recently, the club helped with a conference for Hispanic high school seniors from across the state held at UVSC. Over 200 high school students attended. Members of the club who helped said how touching it was to see so many young Latinos together. Attendees learned about expanding educational opportunities and breaking free of stereotypes. Which is another goal of the group: help the community to better understand the demographic.

T O P A NT type of Latinos being poor Mexican immigrants, which is not the case. "We're all from different countries," said Vice-President Rodrigo Zuniga, who is from Chile. According to Galvez, a Guatemalan, "A lot of people think minority youth are delinquents." Galvez wants the local community to see Latin Americans as positive, contributing members of society. To this end, the club organizes monthly service projects, which recently have included the club's role in the high school conference, and Subfor-Santa. In addition to service projects, there are a lot of activities. They try to have Sunday dinner together once a month, and there is a monthly movie night. One positive stereotype that seems to be true is that there is a lot of dancing. Many of the club activities involve dancing. Look forward to a large dance to be held early April. So if you or your family is from Central or South America, the Latin American Club is a great way to get involved. Non-Latinos are also welcome. The club meets Tuesdays at 4:30 p.m. in the upstairs cafeteria in the Student Center. For more information e-mail Iatinamericanclub@uvsc. edu.
