FIT HLX 2024

The Forty-Niner Intensive Transition program which was geared to students of a Hispanic or Latinx background was a huge success this year. Dozens of students gathered together for a unique, week-long experience to situate them in their new home. This program counted for two college credit hours and they worked with two peer mentors. The survey of the students afterwards included many positive responses:
