Welcome to the home page of Cal State University Los Angeles Movimiento Estudiantil Xicano de Aztlan (M. E.X.A.). M.E.X.A. is a student organization committed to the empowerment of our gente and the liberation of Aztlán.

As Mechistas, we believe that self-empowerment can truly be sought through cultura, historia, education, and political involvement. Through self-empowerment, our people will rise above oppression, and racism.

Thus, as Mechistas, we will dedicate ourselves to taking our educational destiny into our own hands. This will be accomplished by spreading Chicanismo in the spirit of companerismo and by recognizing that the destiny of the movimiento will be determined by each Mechista accepting responsibility for carrying the movement forward.

MEXA also focuses on its members. Membership development is accomplished by providing professional exposure, leadership opportunities, workshops and scholarships to assist members in their personal and professional development. These goals are met through conferences, specialized workshops, speakers, and by encouraging active participation in our various committees.
