Heritage Months Series
Foothill, following the example of the national Black History Month, has combined a series of celebratory months starting every year in January, organized completely by students and funded by the student government (ASFC). These months are filled with cultural activities, speakers and art exhibits tied with the culture of each month respectively.
- January is Jewish Heritage Month

- March is Women's History Month
- April is Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month
- May is Latino Heritage Month
- June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgendered Heritage Month

Famous quotes containing the words heritage, months and/or series:
“It seems to me that upbringings have themes. The parents set the theme, either explicitly or implicitly, and the children pick it up, sometimes accurately and sometimes not so accurately.... The theme may be “Our family has a distinguished heritage that you must live up to” or “No matter what happens, we are fortunate to be together in this lovely corner of the earth” or “We have worked hard so that you can have the opportunities we didn’t have.””
—Calvin Trillin (20th century)
“And he was
there in the hall, flat on a sheet of blood that
ran down the stairs. I did appreciate it. There are few
hosts who so thoroughly prepare to greet a guest
only casually invited, and that several months ago.”
—Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
“I thought I never wanted to be a father. A child seemed to be a series of limitations and responsibilities that offered no reward. But when I experienced the perfection of fatherhood, the rest of the world remade itself before my eyes.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)
