Learning from a Veterano: Title V Grant Directorship & Success

The most downloaded episode of season 1 was “HSI Grant Directorship & Implementation.” In this episode of ¿Qué pasa, HSIs? we return to this important conversation with Victor Davila, Executive Director of Retention and Student Success at Lamar University and old school veterano to HSI grant directorship. Victor has worked in higher education for over 18 years at public institutions in Texas serving as a Primary Investigator, Project Director, and Project Coordinator at three HSIs. He has secured over 9 million dollars in grant funded programs and has a wealth of knowledge around Title V, Part A and Part B as well as Title III Part F directorship and implementation. This episode is a must for anyone writing, directing, or implementing HSI specific grants.
