a commitment to CAHSI’s mission and goals and are poised to become the next generation of leaders in computing. The purpose of the CAHSI Scholar program is to promote the breadth of talent at CAHSI institutions and empower student leaders with platforms to
further Hispanic student success.<o:p></o:p></p>
