College of Saint Benedict Student Selected for Latinas Learning to Lead Youth Institute

“As a first-generation college student at the College of Saint Benedict, Raquel Gudiel hopes to be a leader and mentor within the Latino community.

“I want to learn what it takes to make a community such as the Latino community thrive and move out of the bottom of the social economical ladder,” Gudiel said.

She’ll get that chance. Gudiel, who will be a sophomore at the College of Saint Benedict this fall, is one of 22 Latina college students selected to participate in the 2006 Latinas Learning to Lead Youth Institute July 16-22 at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.”
