“Each year, 30 young scholars are chosen to participate in the Summer Institute for Latino Public Policy in Washington, D.C. Angela Gallegos, 22, and Amanda Jacob, 20 - both undergraduate students in the Wayne State Center for Chicano-Boricua Studies academic program - were selected to the event, which was held June 16-20.

The Inter-University Program for Latino Research sponsored the annual event to provide young Latinos-typically undergraduates of junior and senior status-with practical experience in public policy and leadership training.”*
