“Programs such as D\u00eda de Ciencias give the opportunity to Latino families to increase awareness of different university degrees and break the barriers that exist to achieve this dream. According to surveys, 90% of Latino college students consider important to have a college degree to be successful, however, only 48% consider the possibility. D\u00eda de Ciencias is an event that will give students and parents the tools to realize their dreams and secure their future. “<\/span><\/p>\n
