    Emerging with Intentionality and Joy: Cal Poly SLO

    We conclude season 5 with a conversation on emergence and the active process of becoming a Hispanic-Serving Institution. Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (SLO) is one of the last institutions in the 23-campus Cal State system to become an HSI. Comparatively, many of the 23 CSUs have been HSIs for over 20 years, which put Cal Poly in an interesting position to act with intention and joy. And that they did. Dr. Beya Makekau, Associate Vice President of Strategic Planning & Networks, and Dr. Denise Isom, Interim Vice President for Diversity and Inclusion, join us for an invigorating conversation about intentionality in this work. They describe how they are flipping the narrative on emergence and leaning into the joy and opportunities of doing important work to bring Latine identities into the campus infrastructure. They also describe strategies for engaging the entire campus community so all members can take responsibility for servingness work. Beya and Denise offer so many ideas, you will definitely need to take notes. UPDATE: Since recording this episode, Cal Poly SLO has reached the 25% eligibility threshold; congratulations to them!!!  Guests:  Dr. Beya Makekau (she/her/ella), Associate Vice President of Strategic Planning & Networks, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo www.linkedin.com/in/dr-beya-makekau-23a8ab88 Dr. Denise Isom (she/her), Interim Vice President for Diversity and Inclusion, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Show Notes: https://diversity.calpoly.edu/hsi https://mustangnews.net/cal-poly-students-respond-to-the-universitys-efforts-to-becoming-an-hsi/ https://mustangnews.net/cal-poly-is-working-toward-hispanic-serving-institution-status/ APA Citation:  Garcia, G.A.

    HSIs Enacted Across Space & Time

    In this episode of ¿Qué pasa, HSIs? we learn about enacting servingness across space and time. We focus specifically on the similarities and differences of emerging as a community college HSI and a four-year R1 HSI. Yesenia Escobar Mendoza talks about her experience as a counselor at San Jose City College working in a center that was created with a Title V grant and carrying on the HSI legacy over time. She stresses the importance of Title V grants in building a culture of servingness, but believes that the people hired by the grants are even more essential. Elizabeth Gonzalez shares stories of success from UCLA, an emerging HSI, suggesting that her time working at San Jose City College and UC Santa Cruz prepared her to build strategic partnerships across campus at UCLA. She teaches us about the collaboration and strategy necessary to emerge as an intentional HSI. They are joined by Daniela Cortez Bravo who serves as a HSI student liaison at UCLA, bringing student voice to the work and to the podcast. We compare and contrast servingness across spaces and time while honing in on key strategies for success.

    Stories of Transformation & Healing

    Class is in session with Dr. Alexandro Jose Gradilla, an activist professor at Cal State Fullerton who is grounded in liberatory and decolonial praxis. In this episode we learn how to utilize both federal and private foundation grants to enhance servingness with and for Latine undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty. In his words he provides us with a “hometown buffet” of things you can do as a faculty member at an HSI including building pathway programs, designing and developing curriculum, and advocating and changing policies that harm students. Dr. Gradilla shares stories of success in institutional mentoring and building curriculum that serves both the Cal State University system and the California Community College system. He has been a co-PI on Title V, Part B grants that are making an impact and is currently the PI for a Mellon Foundation grant that funded two programs at CSU Fullerton: the Escritores Promotores and the Social Justice and Storytelling Institute Summer Program. Dr. Gradilla is a storyteller, an activist, and a healer with a clear vision for what servingness is and should be. Beware, this episode will ignite your desire to make change on your campus and in your community!

    The New England HSI Movement

    Let’s welcome New England to the mic! In this episode we learn about the HSI Movement taking place in Massachusetts and across the New England region. Our guests include Dra. Elisa Castillo, the Assistant Vice President of Hispanic and Minority Serving Initiatives at Salem State University, and Julissa Colón, the Founding Director of El Centro at Holyoke Community College. These mujeres are fierce and claiming their role as leaders in the HSI movement. They describe the New England Hispanic and Minority Serving Institution Conference which was funded by a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Education and talk about the many ways the state is supporting their HSI efforts. Elisa shares the journey of Salem State, an emerging HSI that has laid out a “Roadmap to Servingness” while Julissa contrasts that with the story of Holyoke Community College, one of the first HSIs in the Massachusetts with a longer history of servingness. They talk extensively about the unique identities of the Latines they serve including Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, and Brazillians and describe the need for Caribbean-specific servingness (think, Bad Bunny, Portuguese, and mofongo). The energy in this episode is high and the knowledge-sharing is abundant. Wepa!

    Research Spotlight: Dual Enrollment & Promise Programs

    In this episode of ¿Qué pasa, HSIs? we spotlight empirical research that is relevant to HSIs. Our guest, Rogelio Salazar, is a doctoral candidate in the Higher Education & Organizational Change program at UCLA's School of Education. Guided by critical frameworks and methodologies that center an intersectional lens in interrogating P-16 policy, their research demonstrates how policies, organizational processes, and practitioners can disrupt or exacerbate existing educational inequities. We talk about dual enrollment (DE) and state promise programs, and specifically the ways that racially minoritized students benefit from or are disadvantaged by these programs. We also discuss mentoring practices for Latine students in HSIs, guided by an article published in the Journal of the Alliance of HSI Educators. Throughout this plática Rogelio offers best practices for ensuring that policies advance equity in practice for Latine, Black and first generation students.

    ¿Si No Yo, Quien? HSI Directors Leading the Way

    This episode features Dra. Cyndia Morales Muñiz who serves as Senior Director of HSI Initiatives at University of Central Florida (UCF). Dra. Muñiz led efforts that resulted in UCF becoming a federally recognized HSI in 2019. She now works across the university to develop a centralized vision for maximizing this designation in a way that meaningfully serves students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members from diverse backgrounds. In this episode we learn how she leverages her HSI director role to lead the HSI movement on campus, start conversations about servingness, and encourage faculty and staff to get involved with HSI initiatives. She shares the process of UCF achieving the Seal of Excelencia and highlights the value of using the Seal’s guidelines in conjunction with the servingness framework as a way to transform the campus. She also talks about how the campus has used the HSI designation to open conversations about better serving all students, while holding people accountable for talking specifically about Latine student success. She drops so many gems for all HSI campus leaders and shares many stories of success in achieving federal, private foundation, and corporate grants to be innovative in their servingness efforts.

    HSIs as Public Policy

    In this episode Luis Maldonado teaches us about little “p” policy, or public policy, which includes finding solutions to difficult problems. As a policy advocate and lobbyist working with various organizations in Washington, DC for nearly 30 years, Luis has extensive knowledge on how public policy works. He served as director of government relations for HACU for 9 years, successfully establishing in law the federal authorization to create two important funding programs directed exclusively at HSIs: the Promoting Postbaccalaureate Opportunities for Hispanic Americans (PPOHA), or Title V, Part B, and the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education HSIs Grant program at the National Science Foundation. Luis provides us with an overview of how these programs, that HSIs may now take for granted, came into fruition and the long-term advocacy that was needed. Luis is a storyteller, sharing consejos from the trenches of public policy. He also shares his thoughts on the 2024 election and Project 2025 and offers advice for our listeners to become knowledgeable voters. Luis does servingness from the public policy space, advocating for the students and institutions he cares the most about—Latines and HSIs.

    The Origin Story of HSIs & OLLU’s Role

    Do you know the origin story of HSIs and the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU)? In this episode we dive into the archives, by way of President Abel Chávez, to learn one perspective on how HSIs and HACU came to be. Dr. Chavez shares how Our Lady of the Lake University, or OLLU, played an integral role in the foundation, hosting an important convening of the first 11 colleges advocating for the designation. On January 22, 1986, the meeting titled, “Predominantly Hispanic Institutions of Higher Education Meeting” took place and a week later a proposal was submitted to the Ford Foundation to fund a “center” for HSIs. This episode reminds us that our HSI historical roots must be documented. Dr. Abel Chávez is the 10th president of OLLU, known as an integrative leader and learner. He is a first-generation, first-in-family college graduate, son of immigrants, and bilingual administrator and academic committed to enhancing quality, access, and affordability for all students while serving the needs of families, economies, and communities. Throughout the episode he conceptualizes what servingness is, advocating for an environment that honors Latine legends of the past and Latine cultures of today. Dr. Chávez is a proud HSI president who envisions HSIs to be a cornerstone of higher education.   Guest: Abel A.
