Who We Are

The CFA Chicanx/Latinx Caucus (CLX) founded in 2002. The caucus is a critical space for Chicanx/Latinx faculty at CSU to come together, voice our and our people’s concerns and aspirations, assert our needs both as faculty and as part of the Chicanx/Latinx community, all with the full support of our faculty union. In this and other ways, CFA is effectively championing and becoming an example of diversity both within the CSU and in our communities.
