The Black House
Over fifty years ago, Black students at Georgetown University staged a protest, resulting in the creation of the “Black House,” a dedicated space for students of color to gather and address issues. Today, the Black House continues to foster diversity and community through various programs and events, such as discussions, voter registration, and workshops.

La Casa Latina
In 2014, Hoya Latinx leaders organized the first university-sponsored Latinx Heritage Month, which led to the creation of Casa Latina, a dedicated space for Latinx students to share their narratives and access resources. Today, Casa Latina continues to foster inclusivity and community through vital discussions and support for Latinx students at Georgetown.
