McHenry County College Multicultural Affairs honored for inspiring students
The McHenry County College Multicultural Affairs Office was recently presented with a "Reflecting Excellence" award from Reflejos newspaper for hosting a Latino Empowerment Conference.
This year's conference attracted 321 high school students from nine local high schools.
"This is the second year that MCC's Latino Empowerment Conference has been recognized by Reflejos readers for the impressive impact it is having on our students," said Linda Siete, manager of Sales & Operations at Reflejos. "This event has inspired students to pursue higher education, increased their awareness and motivated students by hearing inspirational stories from graduates about how higher education improved their skills," Siete said.
