Only a few living members remain, and 12News got a chance to sit down with one who remembered what campus life was like back then.
Gabino Montaño, or Gabby, still remembers looking through the student handbook when he went to study at Arizona State University in the 1950s.
Dr. Christine Marin is an archivist and professor emeritus at ASU who studied the history of the club. She said the early members had to split off when they knew they had a knew objective. One of the club’s main goals was to raise money for students like them to get an education since money was often a factor in keeping them away, especially if they came from the smaller mining towns.
Over the years, other clubs with the same goal sprouted up and in the 1990s former Los Conquistadores members started a luncheon tradition during ASU homecoming where they could get together and reminisceThe club came to an official end in 2020 when they donated the last funds to another foundation, but Dr. Marin says their goal of “Progress Through Education,” lives on.
