3 CHICANO CULTURAL INSTITUTE Approximately 40 students and guests from the University of Iowa and nearby communities attended the first Chicano Cultural Institute sponsored by the Chicano-Indian American Cultural Center. The Institute was highlighted by a discussion of the "Tragedy and violence of the Mexican Culture" presented by Rafael Legaria of El Centro Internacional de Experimentacion Cultural, Mexico, D.F. Utilizing visual materials and personal experiences, el Sr. Legaria attributed much of the tragedy and violence to the exploitation of Mexico by U.S. influences. Preliminary plans were made to provide exchanges between Chicano and Mexican students under the auspices of the Chicano-Indian American Cultural Center and the Centro Internacional in Mexico City. As the program becomes finalized, additional information will be made available through El Laberinto. The second Cultural Institute will be held November 21, and will feature several films (to be announced) and a discussion led by Mr. Dimas M. Chavez. Mr. Chavez is the Chief Technical Assistant for the National Center for Family Planning Services, the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. More information regarding time and topic of discussion will be available in the near future.
