Hispanic-Serving Institution Week was marked with a variety of events on hundreds of campuses. At Texas State University, which was designated a Hispanic-Serving Institution by the U.S. Department of Education in 2011, the campus community came together as a collaboration of faculty, staff and students to host community conversations about diversity, student support services, and academic excellence.
Katarina Dominguez, director of academic coaching, April Barnes, director of student success initiatives, and Sylvia T. Gonzales, director of developing Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) programs, welcomed students and colleagues to a forum hosted to engage in conversations in what it means to be a Hispanic Serving Institution.
