Historical NoteReturn to Top
The Chicanx Latinx Student Center (CLSC) was established at Washington State University in the early 1970s with a mission to promote self-determination for Chicanx and Latinx students at the university. The center was established following student protests in 1970 that drew attention to racial inequities and the need for specialized services to attract and support Latinx students.
The CLSC frequently collaborates with student groups including the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicana/a de Aztlan (MEChA) as well as Mujeres Unidas, CAMARADAS, and the Chicana/o Latina/o Student Alliance (ChiLaStAl).
