Thursday, April 29 6:00 8:30PM @ 7 Times Square

April marks the one-year anniversary of the first-ever, Yale Latino Alumni Reunion.  While this event was well attended by hundreds of Latino alums, several hundreds more were unable to attend.  Significant accomplishments were arrived at that first weekend in April, and many more achievements have been attained since.  And so, a great deal of excitement and effective changes have been brought to bear, both at Yale and across the country.

In an effort to close the gap between those that were in attendance at the reunion and those unable to participate, the National Board of Directors of the recently created Yale Latino Alumni Association (YLAA) has been hosting a series of Latino Road Shows throughout the country.  Accordingly, YLAA, in collaboration with its regional chapter affiliate the Yale Latino Alumni ...]]> Rodrigo Fuentes Yale Latino Alumni of the Tri-State Sat, 03 Apr 2010 17:12:09 -0400 http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/13908/YLAATSA_IMPORTANT_UPCOMING_EVENTS http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/13533/Volunteers_Needed_Yale_Day_of_Service_May_15_2010

My name is Robert Sanchez (SY '08) and I am writing to ask for your help in responding to changes being implemented to Yale College's counseling program. In the upcoming weeks, the Yale administration plans to make changes to its freshman counselor program. As former students who benefited from the EC program, past ECs, and concerned alumni, we feel that the proposed changes would be detrimental to the counselor program and would have a negative impact on future students of color entering Yale. Unless we respond quickly, these new changes will begin to take place in the next week.

The proposed changes are outlined below, as well as a list of some of the problems we feel exist with the new plans. We ask that you please read through these changes, our concerns, and respond by writing an email to Dean Mary Miller, Dean of Yale College (mary.miller@yale.edu) and Dean Marichal Gentry, Dean of Student Affairs (marichal.gentry@yale.edu). Please respond ASAP this week as these changes will begin to be implemented in the upcoming days. The email should only take a few minutes.

In your response, we encourage you to elaborate as much as you would like, sharing your own experiences with the counselor program and why you feel it is important to preserve. It is very important to share our viewpoints as alums to the administration, to demonstrate why they need to change their approach to the counselor program. Also, please pass this along to other alums who would be interested in helping to respond.

Thank you for your help with this issue.

Sincerely,

Robert Sanchez
