                                                                Student Biography

    

                          My name is Douglas Elvin Santiago, a senior at the University of Arizona.

                          I'm majoring in Administration of Justice with an estimated graduation date           

                          of May, 2019. I'm a 41 year old student, who works full time for the State of 

                          Arizona and attends the university on a part time basis. I have completed 27  

                          unit of a required 45, with an overall G.P.A. thus far of 4.0. 

                                             2018 H.A.C.U. Conference, Washington D.C. 

                          It is the up most pleasure and distinguished honor of mine to be representing

                          my university at the conference. I plan on making the most out of this once in

                      

                          a lifetime opportunity to attend such an important conference. As a student of

                          Hispanic descent, who resides in a region of the country with a large 

                          concentration of Hispanic Americans, I feel that there is a need to voice and   

                          address concerns that not only affects this particular and unique segment of  

                          the population, but its higher education students as well. I believe that I can 

                          be an important source, while attending this conference, in addressing these

        

                          concerns.

                                                       Individual Topic of Discussion

                          My individual topic of discussion at the 2018 H.A.C.U. Conference, will be

                          the importance of protecting the temporary status granted to DACA

       

                          recipients, in particular those who are attending higher education facilities,

                          seeking degrees and conforming with all aspects of established laws, policies

                          and/or procedures. 

                                                       Post Conference Debriefing

                          Upon my return from the 2018 H.A.C.U. Conference in Washington D.C., I

                          intend on updating the followers of this particular blog, with my unique 

  

                          experience, and based on my experience, I hope that future generations of 

                          University of Arizona students, become encouraged and motivated in 

                          potentially attending this conference, such as was the case with myself.
