Hispanic Heritage Month has been an opportunity for me to reflect on my ancestors and their brave choices that laid the foundation for who I am today. My maternal grandparents came from Zacatecas, Mexico, and northern Spain. My paternal grandparents were descendants of Jews expelled from Spain in 1492 who settled in an area centuries ago that would later become part of the United States.

What did she know about Harvard? Without a TV, newspapers, magazines, or even anyone in her immediate family who’d graduated from high school – let alone gone to college – she had a vision and stuck with it.

When I was getting ready to apply to college, my mom went to a college admissions meeting at my school where the counselor took questions from overeager parents about how they were going to get their kids into great schools. His response: “Your kids have to show up, participate fully in the life of the school, get great grades and test scores, be interesting… Oh, and diversity matters, too.
