UIW Honors Program presents A Call for Social Justice

Several UIW students traveled to the Rio Grande Valley in October 2014 to learn about the economic and social issues in this impoverished area of the country. They will report and reflect on the people and organizations they witnessed during their three-day trip, then add their reflections on the legal and other constraints that are affecting the development of this region. Presentation attendees will find out how they can support these local groups and impact legislation to help residents of the border area help themselves. Sponsored by the UIW Honors Program.

The event is free and open to the public. For more information contact, Honors Program Director, Jean Loden at (210) 832-3211 or by email at jloden@uiwtx.edu.
