Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies
The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS) at Brown University facilitates the study of this dynamic region from a multidisciplinary perspective. CLACS organizes academic conferences, lectures, and cultural programming, and supports our over 100 faculty affiliates as well as graduate and undergraduates interested in the region. The undergraduate concentration was first approved in 1973 and was later incorporated into the Center for Latin American Studies (eventually renamed CLACS) after its establishment in November of 1984.
In view of recently released university guidance on events on campus, CLACS has made the decision to cancel its events with the exception of the March 11, 2020 lecture by Julio Capó, Jr. listed below. This decision was not made lightly. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to providing more programming as soon as we are able to do so.
