The CUNY Dominican Studies Institute is supporting the work of the PRAC by including our collaborative model in their call for Summer Interns.
Founded in 1992 and housed at The City College of New York, the Dominican Studies Institute of the City University of New York (CUNY DSI) is the nation’s first university-based research institute devoted to the study of people of Dominican descent in the United States and other parts of the world. CUNY DSI’s mission is to produce and disseminate research and scholarship about Dominicans, and about the Dominican Republic. CUNY DSI is the locus for a community of scholars, including doctoral fellows, in the field of Dominican Studies and sponsors multidisciplinary research projects.
In the summer of 2024 they supported Luis Manuel Bou López de Victoria. Bou worked as an intern in the Colección Puertorriqueña of the UPR Library. He helped organize various collections while preparing a guide to Antillanista materials in the collection, especially 19th Century materials.
