Since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the spread of the coronavirus a pandemic, the list of colleges and universities on shutdown continues to grow. Sports leagues and tournaments have been suspended, delayed, or canceled across the country. Theme parks have also closed and so have Smithsonian museums.
In an abundance of caution, the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) and Google have canceled the HACU/Google Hispanic Student Leadership Summit. The event was scheduled for April 17-18 at the Google Office in Austin, Texas.
According to the initial statement, completed application forms had to be submitted no later than March 1 and Google was to confirm selections by March 9.
Acceptance to the Hispanic Student Leadership summit included financial help with travel, credits for ground transportation to and from the airport and the hotel, hotel accommodation, and meals.
Engineering and computer science students across America were encouraged to apply for the two-day Hispanic Student Leadership Summit sponsored by Google and the Computing Alliance for Hispanic-Serving Institutions.
Now in its fourth year, the Hispanic Student Leadership Summit was created to bring Hispanic leaders together to share best practices, as well as collaborate with Google’s Hispanic leadership to benefit their universities, student organizations, and communities.
