Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies (LALACS) is one of the newest
academic programs at Dartmouth. It was first established with the name Latin
American and Caribbean Studies(LACS) in 1993, as an interdisciplinary area
studies program centered on Latin America and the Caribbean. In 1997, the name
was changed to LALACS in order to reflect the incorporation of another
dimension: Latino Studies. At present LALACS is an interdisciplinary program
composed of two separate tracks: Latin American and Caribbean Studies (LACS),
and Latino Studies (LATS). The program officially became a permanent academic
program on February 13, 2006.
