He also serves as a <span class=\"caps\">JMU<\/span> Professor in Residence at Thomas Harrison Middle School, where he develops activities and initiatives that empower minority and underserved students. He is most proud of collaborative work with partners in the community, notably <span class=\"caps\">EMU<\/span>, toward developing the Shenandoah Valley Scholars\u2019 Latino initiative (<span class=\"caps\">SLI<\/span>) for high school Latinos.<\/p>\n<p>Carlos grew up in the small, migrant farming town of Selma, CA, the seventh of nine children. The pursuit of a doctorate at the University of Iowa took him a long way from his Mexican-American home, but brought him closer to embracing the diversity of Latino cultures. He teaches subjects of interpersonal and cultural communication, theory and advocacy, discourse and identity, and cultural diversity. He enjoys writing with his partner, Dr. Melissa Alem\u00e1n. Their auto-ethnographic work reflects on communication ritual and identity in multicultural and Latino families.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"emu-podcast-embed\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/media\/podcasts\/09.18.15--CarlosAlemanLSAChapel.mp3\">Your browser does not support the audio element.<\/audio><\/div><p>Reviviendo Nuestras Tradiciones \u2013 Latino Heritage Month Dr. Carlos Galvan Alem\u00e1n, associate professor of Communication Studies at James Madison University, reflects on contemporary communication of Latino identities, and what it might mean to re-live the traditions of our families and cultures.
