This past summer, some of our Lancers attended the National Hispanic Institute leadership programs, attending sessions at UC San Diego, St. Mary’s College of Maryland, Washington D.C., Colorado State University, and the University of Denver.

Congratulations to Noah Leiva, who earned the title of “Most Promising Leader,” outshining nearly 100 peers from across the nation! We also celebrate the dedication of Mario Cassina, Julian Gomez, and Soraya Hernandez, who have consistently demonstrated their commitment by advancing through the NHI program from their freshman year to their senior year.

Special shoutout to all our participants: Sophia Buckmaster, David Conchas, Elijah Loayza, Alexander Perez, Jade Martin-Gomez, Maya Ulick Gallegos, Audrey Montano, Atticus Jackson, Tatiana Quijano, Jennifer Romero, Isabel Moya, and Michael Fortanasce.

You’re not just shaping your futures—you’re shaping the world!
