[Dr. Donna Lynn Clark, Ed.D @DonnaLynnClark4]

Diversity requires cultural awareness. Appreciating and respecting differences prepares students for life. Representation matters. Ss need to see themselves in their mentors, that they are represented. #THES2018 #CoogLeaders

[Dr. Donna Lynn Clark, Ed.D @DonnaLynnClark4]

The morning discussion is addressing the actual need for remedial courses versus differentiated learning in grade level courses when it impedes progress towards college & career readiness. #THES2018 #CoogLeaders

[Dr. Donna Lynn Clark, Ed.D @DonnaLynnClark4]

Thank you @ka_butche and your research team for reminding us that being fully present in the moment, mindfulness, provides opportunities to teach and learn that wouldn’t otherwise be available #THES2018 #CoogLeaders

Had a great time presenting our research on faculty representation on institutional websites at the TX Higher Education Symposium! #RepresentationMatters #txed #THES2018 @TxHigherEdSymp

Great concluding thoughts on how qualitative research is challenging our understanding of students’ decision making processes and the critical role of geography. @VaSansone @TxHigherEdSymp #THES2018

[Sofía Bahena @sofiabahena_]

So glad I finally got to learn more about Las Comadres! You all are doing amazing work. @Ruth13L @mhoney_315 @TxHigherEdSymp @UHCOE #THES2018

.@eyraperez on recognizing the valuable assets Latino parents use to help their children with the financial aid process. #THES2018 @TxHigherEdSymp @UTSACOEHD @TeamELPS

[Lady Edana @Lady_Edana]

Day two of @TxHigherEdSymp providing many opportunities for statewide dialogue on improving cultural competency in the classroom, improved completion rates, and upward mobility for students, staff, n faculty of color in Texas. So glad I made it to @UHouston #THES2018

[Lady Edana @Lady_Edana]

@TxHigherEdSymp Leveraging Hispanic Enrollment Completion Patterns w/ @JorgeBurmicky n @WonsunRyu from UT Austin showing increased completion rates in West TX border towns for Latina males is intriguing. What can we do to improve ratings across Texas? #THES2018

Day two of #THES2018 has started with a panel on Race and Equity in Higher Education!

[Sofía Bahena @sofiabahena_]

Representation matters. Students should be able to see themselves in their faculty. It’s important to think of diversity in both students and faculty. @Ruth13L @TxHigherEdSymp #THES2018

[Dr. Donna Lynn Clark, Ed.D @DonnaLynnClark4]

The Texas Star Showcase is an excellent way to communicate what we are passionate about - the educational theory of everything. #THES2018

[TX Higher Ed Symposium @TxHigherEdSymp]

Ending an awesome day one of #THES2018 with a phenomenal talk from Dr. @travisyork on “Jobs Hidden in Higher Education.” We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow for day two!
