"We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community."
Today, on César Chávez Day, we honor the legacy of a tireless advocate for farmworkers' rights, civil rights, and social justice. Cesar Chavez's leadership in the labor movement paved the way for fair wages, safer working conditions, and dignity for all.
The SLC is honored to be located in the Cesar Chavez building on campus and dedicate ourselves to upholding his values of empowerment and solidarity.
