APLU Webinar Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

Join APLU on Thursday, October 8, 2020 at 2:00pm EDT for a special hourlong webinar in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month with three Hispanic public research university presidents.

During the discussion, the presidents will discuss the successes public four-year institutions have made in recent years in better serving more Hispanic/Latinx students and how they contribute to the vibrancy of college campuses across the country. The presidents will also explore the challenges and opportunities for public universities as they work to do more to expand access and ensure increased success of Hispanic students. This will include a discussion on the policies, supports, and other factors that go into ensuring Hispanic students can thrive on campus. The presidents will also explore how public universities can expand the number of Hispanic faculty members and ensure their campuses are welcoming and inclusive.

APLU and the Coalition of Urban Serving Universities Director Andréa Rodriguez will serve as moderator. Questions will also be fielded from registrants.
