Join the Social Media Team

Hesperides is seeking graduate students to join our social media team. Our "social media coordinators" contribute to our online public presence in Spanish, English, and Portuguese. The time commitment is an average of an hour every two weeks, and the position serves as a lowstakes, flexible opportunity for professional development and networking with our community—and a great line on a CV. Write to contact@hesperideslusohispano.org to learn more!

 

Participate in an online Jornada

 Each year we are pleased to host a series of virtual events with our community, ranging from traditional research presentations to pedagogical roundtables and more. You'll find information on upcoming talks here, and you can view previous events on our Youtube channel. If you'd like to present in a future jornada or suggest a topic for a roundtable or workshop, you can learn more or submit a proposal for an event here.
