Wednesday, May 5th was Cinco de Mayo! I have hosted a Cinco de Mayo party for the past 5-6 years. This year we had additional funding and cooperation from the folks in our Center for Intercultural Teaching and Learning (CITL), so we did it bigger and better than ever! We had food from local Mexican restaurants, broke a pinata, played Mexican BINGO, learned about the DREAM act, had a power point highlighting the history of Cinco de Mayo, and it was all accompanied by festive Mexican music!

Here are some photos...

After the pinata broke we used his head as a mask! :)
