Center for Latino Arts and Culture
Site Supervisor: Carlos Fernandez, Ph.D
The project will center on designing a model for assessing student learning for CLAC programs and services. Focusing on one or more of our signature programs—dialogues with faculty, film screenings and discussions, artist exhibitions and performances, and our fall student leadership conference and spring retreat—the student will work with CLAC staff to 1) identify key learning activities and outcomes; 2) develop appropriate tools and mechanisms to measure program impact; 3) collect and interpret data; and 4) prepare a final report that provides suggestions for embedding ongoing assessment strategies into CLAC procedures. The project would by supervised by CLAC director Carlos Fernandez.
The Center for Latino Arts and Culture (CLAC) was established in 1992 to advance, research, and document arts and humanities scholarship, artistic production, and cultural traditions of Latinos in the United States, the Caribbean, and the Americas.
Our programs, services and resources are designed to engage the Rutgers community--students, faculty and staff, as well as artists, scholars and tradition bearers—in the process of exploration of what it means to be Latino in the United States and throughout the world.
The CLAC seeks to build a supportive environment that enhances Latino student recruitment, retention and successful graduation at Rutgers University. We advocate for the wellbeing of our students and work to create effective access to University services and resources.
Working with student organizations, academic departments, student support services, and community-based organizations, the CLAC seeks to help students actualize their potential through the integration of experiential, academic and service learning in order to become strong leaders and responsible global citizens.
