2025 Ethnic Studies Summit

Wednesday, May 21 ~ 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Struggles for Ethnic Studies Past and Present

De Anza Conference Room A & B

Since its creation in the 1960s, the student-created and community-centered academic field we know today as Ethnic Studies continues to face questions of legitimacy.  This year's 3rd Annual Ethnic Studies Summit brings together our college community--students, faculty, and staff—to highlight the topography of conversations in defense of Ethnic Studies.  Participants will hear from keynote speakers, engage with student research and poster board presentations, and participate in an interactive and collective discussion.
