Hispanic Heritage Month

HHM Logo

National Hispanic Heritage Month is the period from September 15 to October 15 in the United States, when people recognize the contributions of Hispanic and Latino Americans to the United States and celebrate the group's heritage and culture.

September 15 was chosen as the starting point for the celebration because it is the anniversary of independence of five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. All declared independence in 1821. In addition, Mexico, Chile and Belize celebrate their independence days on September 16, September 18, and September 21, respectively.

Neighbor Nights

Join us for a dinner, often hosted by a multicultural student organization, open to all Baylor students, staff, and faculty! Neighbor Nights feature different cultures and stories from students while we gather to share a meal of different cultural cuisines around a table with our neighbors. These dinners are a wonderful time of fellowship and delicious food!

Get to know your neighbor...one dinner at a time!
