“With higher education in Texas facing unprecedented challenges, this summit is a crucial moment for all of us to come together and take action,” said Dr. Angela Valenzuela. “We encourage everyone who cares about the future of education in Texas to attend.”
The event is expected to draw a large and passionate crowd ready to launch a coordinated campaign in favor of just and equitable policies for higher education. The summit will conclude with a final discussion session to reinforce key takeaways and strategies for moving forward.
