In great news, The National Hispanic University has received 2 grants!
The first comes to us from The David & Lucille Packard Foundation in the amount of $200,000.00 in support of the Science and Math Department chaired by Dr. Yazmin Rosa-Bauza.
The second, from the Koret Foundation, is in the amount of $25,000 which is for the Middle College Program coordinated by Prof. Michael Mooney.
Congratulations to all who made this possible!

At this event, they will be given an opportunity to speak about their publication. In their presentation, they will be discussing not only content but also about their personal factors related to this endeavor.
Muchas gracias,

WASC Visit
Five WASC visiting team members (two from the previous CPR visit) will be visiting us from February 10-13 for the Educational Effectiveness Review.
NHU’s WASC Steering Committee worked diligently to submit the EER report by November 21st, which is available for you to read - just click the following link: http://www.nhu.edu/newsite/wasc2006/wasc_eer.htm.
Reminder: Since it is imperative that we are all present during the entire EER WASC visit, no vacations will be approved between February10-13.
We are excited to welcome the WASC visiting team to NHU to showcase our programs and ongoing improvement process.
Student Accomplishment
Adriana Rodriguez (current NHU student), adjunct professor Nannette Regua and Patricia Ruiz (current NHU student) have been selected as a panel in the upcoming NACCS (National Association of Chicana and Chicano Studies) Conference in New Brunswick, New Jersey in April of this year. They will be presenting a panel on the theme of : Women Breaking Barriers: Mexican Women and Twentieth Century America.
NACCS is the academic organization that serves academic programs, departments and research centers that focus on issues pertaining to Mexican Americans, Chicana/os, and Latina/os. The association was created in 1972 during the peak of the Chicana/Chicano movement.
You will see the girls working on fundraising so please support them. When you see them, ask about their panel and wish them the best of luck.
How wonderful that NHU will be going to the East Coast.
We know you will bring us pride!
