Carolina Cardenas is the Director of ACCESS, the academic program which oversees GEAR UP, SASOP & Upward Bound. In the March 13, 2000 issue of The Pride, the edi tors would like to clarify information in Pride Staff Writer Amanda Bergara's article "The National Latino Research Center Benefits CSUSM Students, Faculty and Community". Concerning thefirstsentence ofthe article, the NLRC can only be considered "a major institution concerned with disseminating research throughout the country,'* according to Dr. Soriano, i.e. the NLRC could be considered a "hub" for providing information regarding nationwide research on Latino populations, but not for actual "nationwide research." In the first sentence of the second paragraph, the NLRC is piloting the Youth Research Center, and one of its projects is to study "the precise issues and barriers preventing studentsfromcompleting high school," but is not the Youth Research Center's sole purpose. ; Thomas Jefferson School of Law A Qreat Legal Education... and sSo Miuch We provide More We care about our tudents and t shows. an outstanding legal education in a supportive, collegial atmosphere with innovative academic programs.
