Show pride in your culture with these creative Mexican grad cap ideas!
¡Hola! It’s that time of year again –
Graduation is coming up, and it’s coming up quick. With the impending ceremonies comes the old tradition of decorating your grad cap.
And:
There are SO MANY decoration ideas out there! In this post about Mexican graduation caps, I wanted to showcase some ideas that are making waves – awesome green, whit, and red waves.
According to the U.S. Department of Education, the rate of Hispanic high school graduates going to college grew from 22% to 37% in the period from 2000 to 2015. That’s amazing!
Additionally:
Hispanic undergraduate enrollment has more than doubled, now there are 3 million students. That’s a number that keeps growing, and we’re HERE FOR IT. Colleges are beginning to become more diversified and inclusive, a trend I hope that will continue to expand and magnify.
After all, isn’t that what the U.S should be all about? (Melting pot anyone? Yes, please.)
