TACHE 37th Annual State Conference, Galveston, TX

February 1-4, 2012                               Tremont House Hotel

Too Big to Fail: Promoting Social Connections for Latin@ Success "Conéctate"

Linda Contreras Bullock
TACHE President Elect

On behalf of the Texas Association of Chicanos in Higher Education, I would like to announce that the 37th Annual TACHE Conference will be held on February 1-4, 2012, at the Tremont House in Galveston, Texas. 

We have selected a theme that is both reflective of the mission of TACHE and is critical to the success of Chicanos in education and employment in higher education.   "Too Big to Fail:  Promoting Social Connections for Latin@ Success - 'Conéctate' " is a theme that will ensure us an opportunity to explore ideas, engage in dialogue, network with colleagues and share knowledge on the many ways to connect, re-connect and form a network of allies to keep abreast of the issues that affect our community. 

A variety of topics will be highlighted including Technology in Higher Education, New Perspectives for Innovation in Retention and Completion, Incorporation of State Mandates and Recruitment and Educational Attainment in STEM Fields.  As conversations emerge around these topics, we expect this will be a venue where ideas are shared regarding innovative strategies for teaching, both in the classroom and online; inventive outreach in STEM curriculums; leadership for advocacy initiatives for Latin@ students, staff and faculty and much more. 

Make plans to attend this conference and experience the recovery of the beautiful Galveston Island.  The historic Tremont House is central to the Strand and our TACHE home for the 37th Annual TACHE State Conference.
