This year, Explore UT attendees will have an opportunity to learn about the work that Project MALES is doing at UT and for male students of color in collaboration with our local partners the Austin independent School District (AISD) and My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) Austin. In addition, there will be a screening of the PBS NewsHour special featuring Project MALES. This story featured interviews with Dr. Victor Sáenz, Executive Director and Founder of Project MALES, Dr. Emmet Campos, Director of Project MALES, TY Davidson, Principal at Travis ECHS as well as interviews with some of our mentors, mentees, and other AISD partners.
Additionally, Project MALES student mentors, work-study’s, and interns will partner with the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement (DDCE) and with the Center of Mexican American Studies (CMAS) to host several events and activities throughout the day. We are looking forward to sharing the work Project MALES is engaged in at UT community and with our local partners. Please come back soon for highlights!
