The Office of University Diversity & Inclusion is excited to welcome Dr. Gina Ann Garcia to Cal Poly to deliver the keynote address "On becoming a Hispanic Serving Institution" in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Garcia focuses on helping students, faculty, staff and administrators understand how to serve an increasingly racially and ethnically diverse undergraduate population.  

Dr. Garcia is an author, professor, and leading scholar on Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs). Her keynote address will challenge students, staff, faculty and administrators to think about what the individualized path of becoming an HSI could look like for Cal Poly, and explore the role HSI status plays in ensuring a more just and equitable future for Latinx students on our campus.
