Meet Mena Sanders
Hometown: Duke, OK
Major: Behavioral Science
Why Western? I chose Western because it was affordable, and a great place to give me a college feel.
Activities at Western: Student Senate, Rotaract, Black Student Union, Hispanic Student Association, WINDS, and Pioneer Pride.
Favorite thing about your culture: My favorite thing about my culture is the food, music, and dances. I love to watch people of my culture dance, sing, and overall have a good time! I also love going to parties where they dance and sing so I can enjoy the food.
What does Hispanic Heritage month mean to you? Hispanic Heritage month means a lot to me. It is an awesome feeling to know that my heritage and people are being celebrated. This month is a great time to come together with people of the same heritage, to celebrate and learn more about our culture and it is a good time for people who are not Hispanic to learn about our culture!
