LSU – Latiné Student Union
We aim to unify and give voice to the Latinx community and our allies to create a safe, inclusive, and respectful space where we can organize together and empower each other. We strive to accomplish this by: - Fostering a community of current SCU students, alumni, faculty, workers, etc... - Creating and maintaining an open channel of communication within our community to facilitate awareness, discussion, and activism. - Celebrating all Latin American cultures and experiences.

Francisco Campoy (He/Him)
Co-Chair
I am a third-year Biochemistry major, having transferred from Evergreen Valley College. Serving as one of the Co-Chairs of LSU, my mission is to nurture a stronger sense of community within our group by organizing engaging and innovative events, while fostering closer connections among our general members. My vision also includes creating a more inclusive environment that embraces all the diverse identities encompassed by the term 'Latiné. One of my other goals is to see a diverse group of new and familiar faces join us as we progress through the year, together, we can make LSU a more vibrant and welcoming community.
