Our Activities

Each of these activities is designed to retain students and move the students rapidly into core courses and through program completion at SJSU, SJCC, and Gavilan. By providing systematic support for Hispanic and LI students at our three institutions, we plan to increase the number of Hispanic and LI students earning STEM degrees and provide transfer pathways. We have a total of 5 activities run by our Team.
