One of the speakers at the pro-ethnic studies press conference was Theresa Montaño, a professor at Cal State Northridge who teaches in the Chicana and Chicano Studies department. She initially was invited to the board’s town hall by member Beckie Gomez, the only Democrat on the board, but withdrew Monday saying the panel would offer a skewed, uninformed view about ethnic studies. Montaño said the other panelists were not experts in the field and oppose teaching the subject.
