On Feb. 12, Cabrillo College — one of 572 Hispanic-Serving Institutions in the U.S. with more than 25% Hispanic students — unveiled a new mural in the cafeteria to show commitment to expanding educational opportunities.
The unveiling was timed to coincide with the Board of Trustees meeting.
Muralist advisor Guillermo “Yermo” Aranda, a well-known multi-media artist, is at left with John Graulty, dean of the Visual, Applied, and Performing Arts Division.
Of the 11,000 students, 49% are Latino. For the past two years, Latinos comprised 51% of the graduating classes.
