On Sept. 7, the Organization of Latin American Students (OLAS) hosted their annual Asada, welcoming students from all different backgrounds to enjoy food, games, music and the community they bring to Quinnipiac. With a steady line of hungry college students, OLAS catered food from La Isla in Hamden and attendees filled up to-go containers.
“It’s really easy to feel not seen and what we’re trying to do is just bring everybody together,” OLAS President and senior psychology major Leah Flores said. “You don’t have to be hispanic, you don’t have to be latin, this is just an inclusive org (organization) where we’re just building a family here on campus and making people feel seen and heard.”
The Organization of Latin American Students e-board host their first event of the year as they offer various prizes for students who donate canned goods.
