摘要：

This panel presents the Computing Alliance of Hispanic-Serving Institutions. The Alliance, developed by eight HSIs with funding from the NSF's Broadening Participation Program, seeks to increase the numbers of Hispanics in all areas of computing, including increasing the number of Hispanic students who enter the professoriate, retaining and advancing Hispanic faculty, and developing and sustaining competitive research and education programs at HSIs. The Alliance addresses issues of educational diversity by recruiting students into computer science, preparing students to succeed as computing majors, supporting students in their studies through peer-led team learning, helping students develop learning and career skills, and moving students from undergraduate programs into Ph.D. study. The objectives of and opportunities to work with the Alliance will be explored by five representatives of Alliance institutions.
