UNM Upward Bound

UNM Upward Bound The UNM Upward Bound Program is 100% funded through a grant from the U.S.

Department of Education under the Higher Education Act of 1965 in the amount of $466,198. Upward Bound provides fundamental support to participants in their preparation for college entrance. The program provides opportunities for participants to succeed in their precollege performance and ultimately in their higher education pursuits. All Upward Bound services are to assist participants in prepar

ation for success in higher education. Upward Bound supports students socially, culturally, emotionally, and in college readiness. Upward Bound serves high school students from low-income families and high school students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor's degree. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rate at which participants complete secondary education and enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education. Upward Bound projects are designed to improve the financial/economic literacy of students, who are limited English proficient, students from groups that are traditionally underrepresented in postsecondary education. Also, Upward Bound serves students with disabilities, students who are homeless children and youths, students who are in foster care or are aging out of foster care system or other disconnected students.

“Traitor, Survivor, Icon: The Legacy of La Malinche examines the historical and cultural legacy of the Indigenous woman at the heart of the Spanish Conquest of Mexico (1519-1521). A controversial and enigmatic figure with a complicated life story, the woman known colloquially as Malinche played a central role in the major and minor transactions, negotiations, and conflicts between the Spanish and the Indigenous populations of Mexico. Traitor, Survivor, Icon establishes and examines her symbolic importance and the ways artists, scholars, activists, and everyday women have used her story and image as means of expression.”
