Institute director Dennis Borges hosts the “Portuguese American Hour” radio program on Multicultural 1600 AM. The Portuguese Beyond Borders Institute is a collective effort between the College of Arts and Humanities, Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology and College of Social Sciences.
