ACTIVITIES
MENTORSHIP
For LMU, Mentorship is an important component of the program where members get the opportunity to be mentored by upperclassmen within the organization at Texas A&M University. This will be a year-long one-on-one mentorship where the mentor and mentee will meet several times a semester.
WEEKLY JUNTA
La Junta is a place where members come together for workshops/meetings to have candid conversations around a variety of topics. Planned topics include: ethnicity, masculinity, leadership, relationships, and members also get the opportunity to initiate topics relevant to them.
EXCURSION
The annual LMU Excursion is a two-day high impact experience where we visit a major city in Texas. The purpose of the excursion is to allow members to explore their identity in what it means to be a Latino man, develop professionally, be a service to the community and explore the historic culture of the area. Some components of past experiences include visiting underserved K-12 schools, networking and learning at 2-3 corporate office visits, exploring different cultural museums and engaging on a reflective project.
