Tito Guerrero, President of Cambridge College, and Gregory W. LaPointe, Director of Institutional Planning and Effectiveness, Cambridge College.

The demographic profile of Hispanics in the United States is changing in very significant ways.  Not only are Hispanics already the largest ethnic minority group in the nation, but the size of the Hispanic population (already above 45,000,000) is expected to double by the year 2030.  Tito Guerrero and Gregory W. LaPointe will discuss how  this increase in the Hispanic population in the United States has important implications for the nation’s schools and universities, for the electoral process, and for the economy.
