Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities’ (HACU) President and CEO Antonio R. Flores joined panelists for the first USA Funds and National Urban League National Summit on Success of Communities of Color in Higher Education on Oct. 28 in Washington, DC. 

The summit convened nearly 200 high-level leaders to promote successful access, completion and career attainment for minority and low–income communities through America's higher education system. Flores and other education leaders deliberated the importance of higher education data and accountability to ensure student success in the classroom and in the workforce, while remaining transparent to the public.
