Meet the Language Assistants (LAs)

Hosted by the Spanish Department at Holy Cross, The LAs lead small, dynamic practicum sessions for Spanish language learners.

Outside the practicums, LAs also play a major role in coordinating the many culturally rich extra- and cocurricular programs regularly held throughout the year.
