National and international leaders will gather in Chicago, IL, October 26-28, 2013 to champion equity and excellence for Hispanic students in higher education. HACU invites your participation in an initiative designed to showcase your higher education institution, campus program or office, agency, association or organization at HACU's 27th Annual Conference: “Championing Hispanic Higher Education Success: Securing the American Dream" at the Hilton Chicago in Chicago, IL.

HACU also invites you to select and send one or more Student Ambassadors to the conference.

Student Ambassadors promote their Sponsors to hundreds of students, faculty, administrators and leading representatives of corporate, community, nonprofit and government sectors who will attend this conference. Student Ambassadors and sponsoring higher education institutions, or offices or programs of that institution will be listed in the Conference Program.

They will benefit from a Student Track program addressing education, career, cultural and leadership issues.
