HSI Equity Talk

This equity talk centers on the transformative work of Cultivamos Excelencia (CE), showcasing how this grant-funded initiative, which ended in September 2026, has successfully built a lasting transfer-receptive culture for Latine, low-income, and all community college students. Looking beyond the lifecycle of individual grants, this talk also offers a vital space to recenter transfer pathways and revitalize our campus-wide commitment to transfer students. Join us as we reflect on how CE’s collaborative model has embedded a transfer-focused mindset in staff and faculty training, department practices, and campus activities, ensuring students thrive at UCSC and are prepared for graduate study. Attendees will receive materials to help assess their departments’ own transfer receptivity. Please complete this RSVP form if you plan to attend. The Zoom information and a calendar invitation will be sent to those who RSVP.
