Bulldog Days at La Casa
For this year’s Bulldog Days, La Casa’s Open House welcomed Latine admitted students and their caregivers from across the world. Guests took guided tours, met with various resident student organizations, were serenaded by Mariachi Lux Y Veritas De Yale, and danced along with Ballet Folklorico and Sabrosura. Peer Liaisons also created a “Commitment Casita” that was populated with pictures of incoming Yale College Latine students.

Topics included Black Yalies in Entrepreneurship, Black Yalies in Education, and Black Yalies in Healthcare.
