Congratulations to SLAT Ph.D. Candidate Daniela Torres Cirina on receiving the Crossing Latinadades Mellon Humanities Fellowship for the 2022-2023 academic year! Crossing Latinadades is a new consortium of 16 Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) funded by a pilot grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The purpose of the consortium is to build a framework for collaborative research, cultural programming, teaching, and archive sharing in the Latinx Humanities. As part of the fellowship, Daniela will also be spending two weeks at the University of Illinois, Chicago during Summer 2022, exploring and reimagining a comparative framework for Latino Studies.
