On this day:

Finding America

From the Crimson White:
The first Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month ever held at the University is coming to a close this Saturday. Those who organized the month-long celebration said it has been a major success...

The University's Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month was part of a nationwide celebration of Hispanic culture that began Sept. 15, a day when many Latin countries celebrate their independence, and will end Saturday, the "Dia de [la] Raza," or "day of the race" when Hispanics celebrate Christopher Columbus finding America.
