Texas State University will celebrate National HSI Week September 9-15, 2024.
Hispanic-Serving Institution
Being a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) is more than a Federal designation at Texas State.
It is a part of our culture.
Embedded in our identity.
Integrated into our strategies, policies, and practices.
As a Hispanic SERVING Institution
We intentionally reflect on our identity to ensure an authentic alignment with those we serve.
We cultivate students' identity development, growth, and social mobility.
We expand and enhance academic offerings, program quality, and institutional stability by accessing federal funding that support capacity building and creating equitable access for all.
