The Hispanic-American Leadership Organization will start a seven-week program tonight designed to create a dialogue between University officials and Hispanic students on campus.

The Collegiate Leadership Development Program is divided into four major sections.

The program sections include members of HALO getting to know administrators, learning how administrative decisions affect the Hispanic student population, academics and budgeting.

“It gives an open-door, open-question policy for the students to ask the administration, on their turf, what’s going on with the University,” said Juan Izaguirre, assistant director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs and HALO adviser.

The program will be held at 7 p.m. in the Multicultural Resource Center.
