Becoming an Unapologetic HSI
This year’s theme on my servingness world tour is “becoming an unapologetic HSI.” The servingness world tour isn’t really a world tour, more like a few states in the U.S., but it is an opportunity for me to raise HSI awareness and reinforce the narrative of servingness. Raising awareness of what it means to be an HSI beyond the enrollment and eligibility requirements and beyond Title V and Title III grants, and educating people on the concept of servingness, is necessary. At this time in the evolution of HSIs as legitimized organizations, very few people truly understand HSI as a construct. Yet we have the opportunity to shape the narrative. And the idea of becoming an unapologetic HSI is part of that narrative. (Click the linked title to read more.)

Tag @Broome_Library, @CSUCI, and @HACUNews or use #HSIs #HSIsWeek to celebrate on social media and connect with the HSI community.
