We strive to encourage more Latina/o students to pursue higher education, and we actively build partnerships with faculty, staff, and campus organizations to strengthen our collective impact. Through these collaborations, we promote awareness of professional development and research opportunities, ensuring our members are well-prepared to thrive both academically and professionally.
