Males Needed for Focus Group

We need two male students--18-years-old--for a focus group downtown at the ACCD office with Representative Joaquin Castro. The Alamo Colleges are bringing together a focus group of 30 students from the five colleges on Thursday, Sept. 17 at 12:30 p.m. We already have females for the focus group.

Representative Castro will be able to directly address students’ aspirations and concerns as he works with the Texas House Committee of Higher Education to develop legislation to benefit students as they pursue their degrees at the Alamo Colleges and continue their educations at four-year transfer institutions of higher learning.

· The opportunities they believe are available to them at the Alamo Colleges
· The problems they encounter in attaining the goal of higher education
· The obstacles they face in obtaining financial aid
