| Presidential Welcome |
Welcome to the National Association of Holmes Scholars Alumni (NAHSA) website. NAHSA, a National Holmes Partnership organization, formed to ensure the professional development, support, and mentoring of Holmes Scholars Alumni to impact educational research, practice, reform, and policy. NAHSA's current membership is comprised primarily of individuals who are Holmes Scholars Alumni (HSA), however, other individuals/corporations who commit to promote and/or support NAHSA's mission and goals but who do not qualify for regular membership, are encouraged to join NAHSA as Affiliated Members.
It is my hope that the information you find on our website will motivate you to join NAHSA as it undertakes activities and initiatives to support Holmes Scholars Alumni and other scholars from diverse backgrounds in achieving their career goals while addressing social, educational, and fiscal inequities. For many HSA, making the transition from being a graduate student to navigating chosen career paths can be an enormous task, but I ask that YOU allow NAHSA to be the beacon of light that guides you through your journey. NAHSA is an organization with a vision that is committed to the structural and institutional changes that are so desperately need in our society, community, public schools, and institutions of higher education.
If you are not a member of NAHSA but you are serious about issues related to our mission or if NAHSA can assist you on your journey, join us now by becoming a financial and active member of NAHSA. For current members, we urge you to become active with the numerous NAHSA committees. These committees are designed to provide avenues for YOU to play a vital role in NAHSA. Please know that only our collective voice will create a vision and force for accomplishing our mission.
Feel free to send me an email at sococo@ksu.edu with your comments, questions, or suggestions on how NAHSA can provide support to you in achieving your career goals. Much success in all of your endeavors!
Sincerely,
Socorro Herrera, Ph.D
