Thank you for supporting the Dr. Diana Natalicio Legacy Fund. We are pleased to announce an exciting development in the way in which gifts to the Legacy Fund will be put to use.

Throughout her presidency, President Emerita Diana Natalicio was passionate about access and excellence in higher education through lasting, research-based systemic change, especially for underrepresented student populations. As a continuation of Dr. Natalicio’s admirable work in this area, the University of Texas System has approved the establishment of The Diana Natalicio Institute for Hispanic Student Success at UTEP. 

Your support of the Dr. Diana Natalicio Legacy Fund will provide resources for the founding of the Natalicio Institute, which will produce research to promote student success, develop leaders for America’s Hispanic-serving universities, and serve as a national resource for inclusive excellence. 

Thank you again for honoring the memory of Dr. Natalicio and supporting the mission of UTEP. 

Sincerely,

Jake Logan

Vice President, UTEP Institutional Advancement
