Each has written a chapter based on their personal education and professional lives. The presidents divide their essays into three sections: 1) Surviving the educational pipeline to obtain an advanced degree, in which they detail their parents' support and at times sacrifices for their children's educational dreams; 2) Moving up the faculty/administrative ladders, in which they cite challenges they experienced and numerous examples from their backgrounds that helped them become successful professors and administrators; 3) Advice for up-and-coming administrators, in which they describe numerous projects they designed and implemented, often reflecting their parents' values and impact on their long careers. 410 0$aDiversity in higher education ;$vv. 13. 606 $aCompany secretary: role & responsibilities$2bicssc 606 $aBoards & directors: role & responsibilities$2bicssc 606 $aHispanic American college presidents$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aEducation, Higher$zUnited States 615 7$aCompany secretary: role & responsibilities. 615 7$aBoards & directors: role & responsibilities. 615 0$aHispanic American college presidents 615 0$aEducation, Higher 676 $a378.73 701 $aLeón$b David J$g(David Jess)$01724756 701 $aMartinez$b Ruben Orlando$01667318 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818784003321 996 $aLatino college presidents$94127083 997 $aUNINA
