2001 Friends of HACU

n 15 years, HACU has grown from a fledgling organizationrepresenting 18 colleges and universities to a 318-member

association with international reach and a vital role in the nationaldialogue crafting the future of higher education policy.

With current events redefining the roles of our most time-honored institutions, now more than ever, institutions of higherlearning have a responsibility to serve in a meaningful capacity inthe academic, professional, personal and ethical development of ourstudents for a new age. Now more than ever, HACU has become anintegral voice for those institutions serving our country’s youngestand largest ethnic population.

HACU also represents the combined commitment and dedication ofdozens of private and public sector partners that share HACU’s missionto promote the college and career success of our Hispanic students.

The historic Memorandum of Understanding signed by HACU in2001 with the United States Department of State became one ofmore than 30 such Memorandums and Partnership Agreementsnow in place with federal agencies, corporations, foundations andallied organizations.

These partnerships have translated into new infrastructure grantsand research opportunities for students and faculty, as well asgroundbreaking reports and other joint initiatives. HACU’spartnership with the Alliance for Equity in Higher Educationrepresents a first unified voice for the higher education needs of allminority populations.

Some of the nation’s best-known corporations have joined dozensof federal government agencies in annual support of the HACUNational Internship Program. Partners as diverse as Wal-Mart, CoorsBrewing Company, General Motors, CIO Magazine, Fannie Mae, theFederal Bureau of Land Management and NASCAR are providingscholarship funds this year for students attending HACU member andpartner institutions.

IBM Corporation, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Microsoft, VerizonCommunications, The St. Paul Companies, NASA and EDUCAUSE are

among the partners that helped HACU expand its reach and impactthrough HACU’s Office of Information Technology Initiatives andOffice of Program Collaboratives in 2001.

Dozens of Fortune 500 companies, federal agencies,organizations and publications have provided support to HACU’sannual conferences, which have become national platforms forpromoting issues ranging from the “digital divide” to the role of ourHispanic-Serving Institutions in the 21st Century workplace.

To our partners, and the leadership of the HACU Corporate &Philanthropic Council, the HACU Governing Board owes its continuinggratitude. With their continuing support, HACU can embark withconfidence and strength upon the journey to even greaterachievements in championing the success of our students and themember institutions that serve them.

Sincerely,

ACU this year begins a new era of excellence as the

nation’s leading voice for Hispanic higher education. The

past year’s extraordinary successes inspire us to strive for

record new levels of excellence in service to Hispanic Americans on

our campuses, in our communities, in the workplace and in the

larger global economy. The tragic events of September 11 only

hardened our determination to aim for unprecedented success in the

years ahead.

For HACU, 2001 was a year in which we celebrated our 15th

Anniversary as the nation’s preeminent advocate for Hispanic

students from kindergarten through graduate school, but especially

for the 1.5 million Hispanics enrolled in U.S. higher education. For

HACU, 2001 also was a year in which we achieved recognition from

every sector as a truly international voice for education access, equity

and success in the 21st Century.

HACU was founded in 1986 in San Antonio, Texas, where our

national headquarters still are located. In 1992, HACU led the effort

to win the first, formal recognition in the federal Higher Education

Act for those colleges and universities serving the largest

concentrations of Hispanic higher education students in every major

state and Puerto Rico. Through HACU’s advocacy, in 1998, greater

recognition and support was provided to HSIs under this Act.

HACU’s efforts, with the invaluable support of education

advocates inside and outside the nation’s capitol, translated into

multi-million dollar federal appropriations to Hispanic-Serving

Institutions (HSIs) in subsequent years. In 2001, HACU won a record

increase in Title V appropriations from $68.5 million for federal fiscal

year 2001 to $86 million for fiscal year 2002.

HACU’s membership also has grown dramatically since its

inception 15 years ago with 18 founding member institutions. At the

end of 2001, HACU boasted 318 member and partner colleges,

universities and higher education systems in 23 states, Puerto Rico,

seven Latin American countries and in Spain.

The HACU National Internship Program, already the nation’s

largest Hispanic college internship program, welcomed a record 631

top college students to paid federal workplace experiences in 2001.

The fast-growing Corporate HACU National Internship Program also

welcomed students to paid internship opportunities on Main Street

and on Wall Street. HACU-administered scholarship programs

provided support to record new numbers of Hispanic pre-

collegiate and college students throughout the country.

HACU in 2001 hosted its first conference outside U.S.

borders at HACU’s 4th International Conference in Costa Rica.

HACU celebrated record attendance and national attention

at its 2001 National Capitol Forum on Hispanic Higher

Education in Washington, D.C., and 15th Annual Conference in

San Juan, Puerto Rico.

These extraordinary achievements would not have been possible

without the continuing support and dedication of our staff, members,

and individual supporters, and the generous contributions of our

distinguished public- and private-sector partners. Together, we are

creating a better future for Hispanic Americans and for all Americans.

To all, I offer my deepest respect, admiration and gratitude.

Cordially,

Antonio R. Flores

President and CEO

s HACU’s 15th Anniversary year came to an end, HACU celebrated

another record year in membership growth. Membership increased by

16 percent between 2000 and 2001. At the end of 2001, HACU boasted

318 member and partner colleges, universities and higher education systems

located in 23 states, Puerto Rico, seven Latin American countries and in Spain.

In 2001, HACU welcomed a new Partner Institutions category. This category

was created to permit institutions of higher education that do not meet

membership criteria, but are committed to Hispanic educational success, to

affiliate with HACU.

The Office of Membership Services expanded benefits provided to members

by increasing accessibility to membership information to public- and private-

sector organizations. Membership data was readily available in printed and

electronic formats and on HACU’s web site.

The Office of Membership Services also established the HACU Faculty and

Staff Caucus initiative. Faculty and Staff from HACU member and partner

colleges and universities will support and participate in HACU’s programs and

initiatives. The Caucus expects its first members in 2002.

In addition, 43 outstanding students attending HACU-member institutions

received scholarships through the Office of Membership Services due to

generous contributions from CBS Foundation, General Motors, NASCAR and the

Wal-Mart Foundation.

ACU’s Office of Program Collaboratives

coordinates collaborative projects funded by federal

agencies, corporations and foundations in conjunction with

Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs). These programs fund faculty

development and research opportunities; pre-collegiate math, science,

technology and engineering programs; model college preparation and

financial aid awareness programs for middle school students and parents;

and HSI workforce development initiatives.

NASA Proyecto AccessThe HACU/NASA Proyecto Access Program completed its fifth year,

thanks to a fifth, $1 million grant from the National Aeronautics and

Space Administration (NASA) Minority University Research and

Education Division. The 2001 grant provided HACU and nine HSIs in

Illinois, New Jersey, Florida, California, New Mexico, Arizona and

Colorado funds to conduct a pre-collegiate mathematics, science

and engineering preparation program for more than 900 students.

The St. Paul Companies, Inc.The College and Financial Aid Awareness pilot program, funded by

a grant from The St. Paul Companies, Inc., was begun in 1998 to

increase awareness in the Hispanic community of the importance of

earning a college degree, and to provide information on financial aid

opportunities and early preparation for college. More than 350 students

and parents from 20 school districts and other programs in Texas attended

project activities in 2001.

NPEC/NCES/Department of EducationThe National Postsecondary Education Council (NPEC) of the National

Center for Education Statistics (NCES) of the U.S. Department of Education

funded the participation of the Office of Program

Collaboratives in a Working Group that

produced the national report, “Paving

the Way to Postsecondary Education:

K-12 Intervention Programs for

Underrepresented Youth.”

Student Leadership DevelopmentThe Office of Program Collaboratives co-sponsored a Student Leadership

Development Fair that attracted more than 700 high school students at the

Bayamon Campus of InterAmerican University of Puerto Rico at HACU’s 15th

Annual Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in 2001.

DHHS/HACU Professions Capacity Building ProjectThe DHHS/HACU Professions Capacity Building Project is a cooperative

endeavor between HACU and the U.S. Department of Health and Human

Services (DHHS) directed at increasing the capacity of HSIs and selected faculty

members to participate in federal, state, and private-sector scientific and

health-related research activities. The program is funded by the DHHS Office of

Minority Health, with additional funding from the National Institutes of Health

(NIH) Office of Minority Health and Health Disparities. Nineteen HSI faculty and

staff members participated in program workshops and conferences in 2001.

NIH Science Policy ProjectThe National Institutes of Health (NIH), through the Office of Minority

Health of the Department of Health and Human Services, funded a project to

address the historic under representation of Hispanic faculty, researchers and

graduate students in health and science fields. Reports and recommendations

stemming from this project were produced in late 2001.

Navy and EPA Faculty Development ProjectsHACU entered into partnerships with the U.S. Navy and U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in projects that will recruit faculty

from HSIs for summer research opportunities at laboratories of the Office

of Naval Research and EPA Office of Research Development.

The Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration

Through HACU’s ongoing partnership with the Department of Labor

Employment and Training Administration (DOL/ETA), HACU is assisting

HSIs to become effective partners in 21st Century workforce

development systems through a series of technical assistance

forums, publications and Internet-based resources available

to all HSIs.

he Office of Information Technology Initiatives (OITI) provides

technological assistance to Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) to

enhance their capacity in information technology. OITI promotes,

educates, assists and facilitates the use of information technology for

teaching, learning, research and administration at member higher education

institutions through a series of cutting-edge partnerships and initiatives.

Advanced Networking with Minority Institutions (AN-MSI)

With funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), HACU

partnered with EDUCAUSE, the premier organization for Information

Technology in higher education, to assist HSIs to become full participants

in the “Information Age.” Through this partnership, HACU assists HSIs and

other Minority-Serving Institutions to develop effective campus

infrastructure and Internet resources. The project already is producing

effective collaborations and assistance to HSIs.

The AN-MSI project has provided consultant teams to campuses to

review their physical and human network infrastructure and make

recommendations for its enhancement. It has helped campuses develop

strategic technology plans to move campuses where they wish and need to

be. It has put HSI representatives in the middle of the latest discussions on

the use of technology for teaching and learning and into leading-edge

collaborative research and high-performance networking computing.

The HACU/IBM PartnershipThe HACU/IBM partnership is addressing efforts to close the “digital divide”

between minority and non-minority populations in the United States. The IBM

Corporation is providing computers at special prices to HACU member

institutions and their faculty and students. HACU and IBM Corporation are

working with the Hispanic Educational Telecommunications System (HETS)

to evaluate an e-Mentoring program for Hispanic students. They are also

working with HSI Cal Poly, Pomona, in developing a cutting-edge program

in e-business. HACU, IBM Corporation and AN-MSI put on an executive session

on information technology at HACU’s 15th Annual Conference. HACU worked

closely with the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute on a “white paper”

commissioned by IBM Corporation on Latinos and Technology.

HACU/PricewaterhouseCoopers eArmyU InitiativeHACU is working with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on a major

technology initiative to provide on-line college degrees to thousands of

soldiers stationed at worldwide locations. Some soldiers took their homework

to the battlefield in Afghanistan. To ensure HSI involvement, PwC invited

HACU to be a member of the Council on Academic Management.

National Information Center for Hispanic Education (NICHE)The W.K. Kellogg Foundation funded a planning grant to help develop

the National Information Center for Hispanic Education (NICHE). The goal is

to create a central Internet location for information regarding Hispanics

and educational issues. A prototype of the web portal for NICHE was

completed, and funding is being sought to continue the implementation

of the NICHE initiative.

The Verizon Hispanic Virtual Learning Marketspace (HVLM)

Verizon Communications and HACU are planning

a virtual learning “marketspace” for Hispanic higher

education. This initiative will provide a virtual one-stop

location for prospective students.

HACU and MicrosoftGlobal software giant, Microsoft, continues to support

HACU’s efforts to assist HSIs to enhance their technological

capability. Without this generous assistance, many of the

efforts described here would not have started.

The HACU/ETS CollaborationAs part of the HACU/ETS (Educational Testing Service)

Collaboration, HACU/ETS Fellows presented their work at

HACU national conferences in 2001.

he Hispanic-Serving Institution Strategy for Removing Employment

Barriers Program (Career Power) in 2001 successfully concluded a

three-year initiative to enhance education and career development

for Career Power participants.

Career Power provided computer-assisted distance learning

opportunities to eligible Welfare-to-Work participants. The program was a

partnership between HACU and 11 HSIs in Texas, California and Arizona.

Participating HSIs were: Our Lady of the Lake University, San

Antonio, Texas; Palo Alto College, San Antonio, Texas; San Antonio

College, San Antonio, Texas; St. Philip’s College, San Antonio, Texas;

Laredo Community College, Laredo, Texas; Santa Monica College, Santa

Monica, California; Evergreen Valley College, San Jose, California; Oxnard

College, Oxnard, California; College of the Sequoias, Visalia, California;

California State University, Dominguez Hills, Carson, California and Pima

County Community College, Tucson, Arizona.

With a $5.5 million Welfare-to-Work grant from the U.S. Department of

Labor, Career Power was unique in that it provided post-employment services,

rather than traditional pre-employment assistance. Using state-of-the-art,

multimedia and interactive computer technology at the employer’s work site,

Career Power trained Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF)

recipients basic educational skills, life/work skills, General Equivalency

Diploma (GED) studies and English as a Second Language (ESL).

HSIs, working in conjunction with local Workforce Investment Boards

and employers, provided Welfare-to-Work participants with the academic

training and support services necessary to sustain full-time, unsubsidized

employment. Career Power enrolled and trained 1,018 participants

throughout the three-state area with 82 participating employers, including

NASA, Del Monte Foods, Marriott Hotels, Foster Farms and many other

major employers.

Participation in this grant allowed HACU and collaborative HSIs the

opportunity to work with a population that has little exposure to higher

education, and to help participants obtain the necessary skills to advance in

full-time, unsubsidized employment. Throughout the training, mentoring and

support counseling components of this project, HSIs emphasized the

importance and benefits of higher education.

One of the program’s goals was to motivate participants to develop skills

and to advance their careers through continued education. Participating

employers benefit from improved employee productivity, greater employee

retention, a higher skilled work force and accrued tax benefits.

Career Power was monitored three times by the U.S. Department of Labor

and Office of the Inspector General, and each time received an “outstanding”

assessment for implementation, administration and operations. HACU

continues to seek other projects that will enable member HSIs to provide

expanded services to diverse communities.

ach year, the HACU National Internship Program (HNIP) provides paid

internships to top college students during spring, summer and fall

sessions at federal agencies and private corporations in Washington,

D.C., and throughout the country.

These ten and fifteen-week internship programs allow college students

to experience the diversity of careers that exist in the federal and corporate

sectors, while providing a quality professional work experience that allows

students to make more informed career choices.

HACU matches each student’s skills and background with the needs of

participating federal agencies and corporations. The result is an internship

assignment that directly relates to the student’s career goals, and allows

the participating agencies and corporations to further their missions.

These internships have led to permanent employment opportunities for

many students. Since its inception in 1992, HNIP has provided more than

3,600 internship opportunities.

Now the nation’s largest Hispanic college internship program, HNIP in

2001 welcomed a record 632 student participants during the program’s

spring, summer and fall sessions. Of those interns, 441 worked in the

Washington, D.C., area and 191 worked in “field” locations throughout the

United States for participating federal agencies and corporations. The

average grade point average (GPA) of the interns was 3.3.

Nineteen federal agencies and six private corporations provided

internships in 2001. The federal agency partners were: the Central

Intelligence Agency, Environmental Protection Agency, Internal Revenue

Service, Office of Personnel Management, Pension Benefit Guaranty

Corporation, Federal Reserve Board, National Science Foundation, Library

of Congress, and Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Energy,

Health and Human Services, Interior, Labor, State, Transportation,

Treasury and Veterans Affairs.

Corporate HNIP Program partners were the Educational Testing

Service, Farm Credit Administration, Goldman, Sachs & Co., The St. Paul

Companies, Marriott and PricewaterhouseCoopers.

HNIP also continued its outreach to member institutions, visiting

colleges and universities in California, Illinois, Texas, New Mexico, Florida,

in 2001. This recruitment effort, in conjunction with an updated program

brochure and new HNIP video, provided federal agencies and corporations

a larger student applicant pool to meet

their prospective needs.

HNIP ended 2001 preparing to

celebrate a decade of “Abriendo Puertas

The HACU National Internship Program The HACU National Internship Program

uring 2001, the Office of Government Relations in Washington, D.C.,

with support from member institution presidents and other HACU

allies, won record new federal funds and other resources for Hispanic-

Serving Institutions (HSIs). New partnerships with federal agencies and

associations were formed to expand support for Hispanic higher education.

HACU celebrated a major increase in federal Title V (Higher Education Act)

appropriations to HSIs from $68.5 million in Fiscal Year (FY) 2001 to $86

million for FY 2002. Other federal funding increases included a $1.5 million

increase in Department of Housing and Urban Development program funds

to $7.5 million to HSIs for FY 2002.

U.S. Department of Agriculture “Farm Bill” support for HSIs remained

constant at $3.4 million in annual appropriations. Congress approved

approximately $5 million in Department of Defense-related infrastructure

development, grants and contract support for HSIs. Reauthorization of the

Elementary and Secondary Education Act also translated into new support

for HSI pre-collegiate outreach initiatives and student support programs.

The Office of Government Relations hosted the 2001 National Capitol

Forum on Hispanic Higher Education, which attracted record attendance

and national attention to an important platform for advocacy on behalf of

the nation’s youngest and fastest-growing population. These national

forums also provide a strategically effective venue for “grass roots”

interaction among leaders of HACU member higher education institutions,

Congress, key federal agencies, allied organizations and the White House.

In 2001, a historic HACU Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was

signed with the U.S. Department of State, which will provide new

employment and internship opportunities for staff and students at HSIs.

Strategically important MOUs also were signed with the U.S. Department of

Energy and American Red Cross.

Currently, HACU maintains more than 30 MOUs and Partnership

Agreements with federal agencies, offices and allied organizations.

Examples of the benefits accruing from such partnerships include HACU’s

partnership with the National Science Foundation, which awarded more

than $54 million to HSIs in 2000. The Department of Housing and Urban

Development provided more than $18 million in community research and

development grants to HSIs in 2001.

The Office of Government Relations in 2001 continued to provide

assistance and outreach to HSIs by hosting technical assistance workshops

throughout the country on available federal program grants and other

resources. Grants from the U.S. Departments of Education and U.S. Department

of Defense permitted the Office to assist HSIs in the design and development

of proposals for new federal TRIO program funding, and to assist HSIs to

obtain Defense Department research grants and faculty development support.

Through the Office of Government Relations, HACU continues to be an

active partner in the Alliance for Equity in Higher Education, the National

Hispanic Leadership Agenda, the Hispanic Education Coalition and the

National Advisory Council on Agriculture Statistics for the U.S. Department

of Agriculture. The Office also regularly represents HACU at national

meetings called by the White House, Congress and other institutions on

issues of importance to Hispanic Americans.

Hispanic higher education.

Major supporters included AT&T, the Coca-Cola Company,

DaimlerChrysler, Ford Motor Company, General Motors, State Farm

members, supporters and initiatives. This outreach

included monthly publication of The Voice of Hispanic

Higher Education, HACU’s national newsletter on

issues of importance to an annually

expanding readership.

Internship opportunities with Corporate

America also grew in 2001 with six new

corporate partners joining the Corporate HACU

National Internship Program. New inroads were

created as HACU placed its first HSI student

intern on Wall Street with Goldman, Sachs & Co.

Other opportunities followed with the Educational Testing Service, Farm

Credit Administration, Marriott International, Inc.,

PricewaterhouseCoopers and The St. Paul Companies.

HACU in 2001 launched a series of new business partnerships with

Independent Auditors’ Reporton the Basic Financial Statements and Supporting Schedules

Board of DirectorsHispanic Association of Colleges and Universities

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of the

Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (a nonprofit corporation) as of

December 31, 2001, and the related statements of activities, functional

expenses and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements

are the responsibility of Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities’

management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally

accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to

financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the

Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we

plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether

the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit

includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and

disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the

accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,

as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We

believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,

in all material respects, the financial position of Hispanic Association of

Colleges and Universities as of December 31, 2001, and the results of its

operations and the changes in the net assets and its cash flows for the year

then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in

the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued

a report dated March 14, 2002, on our consideration on Hispanic Association

of Colleges and Universities’ internal control over financial reporting and

our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,

contracts and grants.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the

basic financial statements of Hispanic Association of Colleges and

Universities taken as a whole. The accompanying schedule of expenditures

of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as

required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of

States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations, but is not a

required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been

subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic

financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material

respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
