¡Seguimos Avanzando! 

The Lessons of Yesterday Illuminate the Promise of Tomorrow 

Greetings from beautiful San Antonio, Texas!

The Texas Association of Chicanos in Higher Education invites you to save the date for our 2027 State Conference, a gathering rooted in legacy, strengthened through connection, and guided by the belief that we move forward together.

The theme ¡Seguimos Avanzando! reflects an intergenerational commitment to one another. Our progress is not made alone. It is built through shared effort, shared responsibility, and shared hope for what comes next. The lessons of yesterday are not behind us. They continue to shape how we think, how we lead, and how we build for tomorrow. And the work we do today will, in turn, shape those who come after us.

In higher education, this shows up in real and everyday practices. Students learn from educators, educators learn from students, and professionals learn from each other across roles and generations. When one part of our community blossoms, the rest of us feel it too. When we show up for one another, we all move forward together.

TACHE continues to bring together professionals across higher education to share ideas, strengthen practice, and build relationships that carry our work forward. The 2027 conference offers time to reflect on where we’ve been, talk honestly about where we are, and think carefully about what we want to build next, together.

Through the incredible hardwork of our conference committee chairs and members, this conference is being shaped with care and intention. It is designed to honor what we’ve learned while staying open to what we are still learning. In that spirit, we will create a space where experience and new perspectives meet, where wisdom is shared across generations, and where our shared commitment to higher education continues to grow.

As we gather in San Antonio, a city shaped by deep history and strong community ties, we are reminded that place matters. Memory matters. And so do the people we share this work with. They ground us in who we are and remind us that none of us do this alone.

Please save the date for a gathering of reflection, connection, and shared purpose.

See you in San Antonio!
