Center for Latine Deaf Studies
Norma Morán to participate in HACU...
Norma Morán, associate director of the Center for Latine Deaf Studies, has been selected to participate in the Enlace Mid-level Leadership Program of the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU). Morán is one of 54 participants – and the only one from the Washington metropolitan area – in the second cohort of this six-month leadership development program for mid-level college and university professionals.
Morán is a ten-year employee. She served as interim director of the newly-established Center for Latine Deaf Studies (Nuestra Casa) last year, and is now associate director under Dr. Carla Garcia-Fernandez, who began in August.
The HACU Enlace Mid-level Leadership Program is designed to increase the number, variety, and quality of Latine talent in leadership positions at Hispanic-serving institutions and in higher education overall. Selectees will participate in programming covering academic and student affairs management, regional institutional accreditation, diversity, equity and inclusion, and higher education advocacy issues. Participants will also interact with a professional search firm.
The sessions will be delivered through a series of online meetings and also in- person sessions that will take place in November 2024 at HACU’s Annual Conference in Aurora, Colorado and at the National Capitol Forum on Hispanic Higher Education in Washington, D.C., in April 2025. The program will conclude with a graduation ceremony.
Capital One and the Mellon Foundation provided grant funding for select participants.
The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities, founded in 1986, represents more than 500 colleges and universities in the United States, Latin America, Spain and school districts throughout the U.S. HACU is the only national association representing existing and emerging Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIS). Its headquarters is in San Antonio, Texas, and it has regional offices in Washington, D.C.; Sacramento, California; and Chicago, Illinois.
Congratulations, Norma, and best wishes for continued success!
