Event Description:
On Monday, November 19th, East Tennessee State University will host its 13th annual Hispanic Student Day at 10 a.m. in the Culp Center Auditorium. Hispanic Student Day is organized and directed by East Tennessee State University’s Language and Culture Resource Center and is sure to be an eventful and informational experience for Hispanic students in northeast Tennessee.
Over 100 students will be in attendance, from eight different high schools in Johnson City and surrounding cities: Greenville, Unicoi County, Morristown, Kingsport and Elizabethton. The event includes motivational speakers, information about scholarships, financial aid, admissions and the application process. Organizations on campus, including the Hispanic American Student Community Alliance and Upward Bound, will also be participating in the event.
The program continues to receive support and sponsorship from North East State Technical Community College, Milligan College and King College.
Hispanic Student Day encourages students to graduate from high school and attend a post-secondary institution. Following the initial session in the Culp Center auditorium, the students will have a campus tour during which they will be able to talk one on one with professionals in various fields of study who will inform them regarding their particular interests, course of studies, and anything else they may want to know about the college experience. In addition to having a lunch on campus at the Main Meal, the students will have the opportunity to watch videos about how other Hispanic students have made it through college. This will be an important experience in their lives, and we are looking forward to receiving this new generation of students and help them follow their dream.
