Pacadena City College is setting historic firsts as their study abroad program heads to Guadalajara.  The Chicano Studies program will have two new study abroad classes in Guadalajara, Mexico and is set for the 2009 Winter Intersession.

According to both professors who are part of the program, English professor Silvia Toscano Villanueva and Anthropology professor Enrique Cardoza Orozco, this will be the first trip for PCC’s Chicano Studies students.

“This is the only program of its type in all of California,” said Orozco, who also helps with coordinating the Chicano Studies program.

Classes will take place at the University of Guadalajara - which will be another first for any community college.

“This is the first for a community college, to be affiliated with the university,” said Villanueva excitedly.
