In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the Department of English and
Foreign Languages and the Multicultural Center at Colorado State University –
Pueblo are inviting students, faculty, staff, and members of the community to
create a literary showcase through submission of poetry, short stories, or
essays that translate the diversity of the “Hispanic Cultural Experience.”
Pueblo’s rich Hispanic background touches the lives of every member of the

languages. “The Hispanic cultural experience is broad, and we want to showcase
its many expressions,” she said.
Submissions, which should be no longer than 1,800 words, are due by
November 15, 2006. Selected pieces will be published on a website for all to
view. Submissions are accepted in English, Spanish and Spanglish. Participants
are asked to include their name or pen name, and a short biography. Submissions
