Student Leadership Model for Hispanic Serving and Emerging Hispanic Serving Institutions
Empirical Evidence and Institutional Gaps
Although empirical evidence indicates that HSIs (Hispanic Serving Institutions) are making some progress in recognizing that enhancing the racial and cultural experiences of Latino/a/x students, "Latinx-enhancing" is part of their role as institutions that enroll and serve large numbers of minoritized students (Garcia, 2019), there are still institutional gaps on prioritizing opportunities for Latino/a/x students to engage in leadership development.
Community Support and Development
Latino/a/x students often rely on informal out-of-college support systems found in their community—comunidad, such as family and peers to thrive within college (Ceballo, 2004; Easley, et al, 2012). It is important to assist them in their development and implementation of strengths-based problem-solving communication approach (Guerra, 2015, 2016).
