Hola and Welcome!
The Hispanic Faculty/Staff Association (HFSA) is a campus-wide organization that provides opportunities for social and cultural interaction among Hispanic/Latino as well as other interested professionals at The University of Texas at Austin. We encourage communication, support networking, serve as a voice for cultural and educational issues, and promote employment and career opportunities.
Fall 2023 Meetings
General HFSA Body Meetings will be held the 2nd Thursdays of the month.
We will have at least one in-person meeting each semester. The rest will be virtual with the hope that members will attend HFSA events like Longhorn FIESTA and the John Trevino Holiday Assistant Program in the fall and our Cesar Chavez and Scholarship Fundraising event in the spring.
