Description

Latinx students of different areas of the country will read, analyze and discuss the reasons for the Latinxs’ higher rate of college dropout; they will use their and their classmates’ experiences as case studies; they will read from the existing body of literature about the education of Latinxs in the USA; and will elaborate a College Survival Latino Guide that they will sell all around the country. The profits will be destined to a scholarship fund for poor Latino kids wishing to study in top-notch schools. All scholarship awardees must work for their community of origin for a minimum of two evenings a week for the rest of their lives. ¡Sí se puede!
