Welcome Back Update!
By Tania Chavez, Academy Intern
With the hot summer weather the UTPA community is full of energy and change. As you all know, we have a new Academy Coordinator, Mrs. Trish Martin. She has come with an open mind and new ideas for the academy. With her excitement, I am sure this upcoming semester will be full of terrific surprises. I hope all of you are enjoying your summer and are ready to absorb all the fun stuff and knowledge the academy has to offer.
Another new change to the academy are its interns. This fall your academy inters would be returning Annette Torres and myself. We are here to assist you in your academy experience. I am sure we will build a great bond in order to offer you the best that the Academy could offer.
Thank you to our past Interns, Vania Barrera and Rebekah Sepulveda, who did an extraordinary job in coordinating all the Academy events for spring ‘09. I am sure that with the excellent leadership skills they possess, both of them have a great future ahead of them. The Academy wishes them luck in their endeavors and has a profound gratitude for their services.
I would like to invite you to our first event in the UC-Circle Wednesday, September 9, 2009 at 5pm: Ice Cream Social. As part, of our social we would like for you to join us to support our Lady Bronc Volleyball team at 7pm. All the Student Leadership Academy members are invited, and if you happen to be with a UTPA student surfing for new opportunities do not hesitate to stop by and learn all the opportunities that the Academy has to offer. Bring your friends and experience the fun and excitement the academy has for you. Hope to see you there.
