The Spanish Club, presided by April Buntin, celebrated The Day of the
Dead/ Dia de los muertos on Friday Nov. 1, 2013. Ninety people from the university and city communities attended and enjoyed presentations, food, and activities. Folks enjoyed
an enchilada dinner afterwards and ate "pan de muertos," a traditional
bread that Dr. Castilla brought to add to the dinner.
Dr. Ana bausset Page
gave a power point presentation on the Aztec celebration, Dr. Miguel Rivera Taupier
talked about the traditions in the Andean region, and Dr. Eduardo
Castilla-Ortiz talked about the celebrations in Spain and the Catholic
influence of the festivity.
The altar was in honor
of Maria Josefa Eugenia de la Santisima Trinidad Cueto de Loyola, Dr. Bausset-Page's
grandmother born in Granada, Spain, mother of 7 children.
