Response to 2009 SALT
“I think the program is characteristic of how CITL is fitting into the campus because yeah, this was required of the CITL students, but CITL students only made up nine of the 21. And it’s my understanding that the vision behind CITL is that yes we are focusing on Latino students and our Latino student cohort, but it’s also much broader than that. We’re focusing on campus-wide transformation and providing access for a broader variety of students. And that’s really what this, the SALT program, did.”
