"I always call myself a community organizer–that's how I behave on my campus. For HSIs to work you need community organizers, people who are like, you know, I'm gonna knock on doors. I don't like silos. I don't like the segregation that scholars and colleges do. I'm gonna knock on doors. And that is why I think the grad level grant experience that we've had at Cal State Fullerton provides a model of how we could and should be doing this at the undergrad level" - Dr. Alexandro Jose Gradilla, Associate Professor Chicana/o Studies, CSU Fullerton
