teachers assisted students in seeking college scholarships regardless of
immigration status. Recruiters from various colleges around the state were
on hand with valuable information. Workshops on how to apply, how to write
effective essays, financial aid, U.S. immigration laws, etc. were conducted
for high school students. Parent workshops were also available. The
event, a collaboration with the CSU Hispanic Recruitment Program, was
