Introducing AAHHE Academic Briefs Professional Development Series
There is great talent among AAHHE members and to showcase the depth and breadth of thought leadership, we begin the
Academic Briefs Professional Development Series. We invite contributions of 500-750 words.
Dr. Claudia Garcia-Louis is our inaugural author with her academic brief titled Hey Hispano: Forget the Celebration, Address Your Internal Prejudice.
Please support our new efforts. If you are interested in your academic brief being showcased and for additional information, please
contact, Dr. Lucia Gutiérrez, AAHHE Executive Director at lucia@aahhe.org.
