On October 15, the Mañe’lon Marianas club and the Chamorro Studies program hosted a recruitment drive to gain more majors and minors for the program.
The drive aimed to attract prospective Chamorro Studies majors and minors, and there was also a volunteer registrar available in case students wanted to register to vote during the upcoming election.
Meia Torres, president of Mañe’lon Marianas, commented on the drive.
“We try to do [a recruitment drive] once every fall semester. We felt that it was important, especially because it’s election season, to include a voter registrar so that the younger generation can make their voice be heard as well,” Torres said.
According to Mary Cruz, assistant professor of Micronesian Studies, Political Science and Chamorro Studies, PhD, one person signed up as a major and five people signed up as a minor during the drive.
“I think [the program] really showcases what is unique about the University and supports the overall mission of UOG, and that is to promote the uniqueness of Guam to the entire region,” Cruz said.
