HACU (the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities) is bringing its conference to Orlando, Oct 31- Nov 2, at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. The conference focuses on championing Hispanic student success in higher education.
Student volunteers will have opportunities to attend conference sessions in exchange for their hours of volunteer service. Don't miss this opportunity to mingle with and learn from representatives of Hispanic Serving college and universities from around the nation!
