“Latinos represent 26 percent of the student population, yet according to CSULB data, graduation rates for Latinos are lower compared to other ethnic groups.

Latino faculty members, staff and students created a series of dialogues between one another to address the issue. The dialogues began in August in an effort to solidify an action plan pertaining to Latino success.”
