Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) are those with an enrollment of at least 25% Hispanic students. But being an HSI is about more than numbers and federal recognition. Panelists will discuss how the word “serving” means leading organizational and curriculum change through a framework centered on equity, familia, and culturally-responsive pedagogy. They will talk about institutions ill-equipped to serve emerging populations, reshaping media programs, and how one institution drives Latino student success while fostering an inclusive environment for all students.

Moderator: Teresa (Terry) Filipowicz, Pima Community College
Panelists: Jennifer Meadows, Chico State University
James E. Machado, MFA, Millersville University of Pennsylvania
Vanessa Arellano, Director of Provost's Office Initiatives and Assistant to the Provost, Pima Community College
