I just want to let you know we currently have a posting for a GIS summer internship through the Hispanic Association of Colleges & Universities (HACU) program. This is one of the few ways that we are now allow by HR to look for summer intern. I’d appreciate your help getting the words out to your students with GIS background. Below are some basic information regarding the HACU program.
Thanks,

2. Can individuals join HACU?
Yes, if you are a faculty or staff person at an institution of higher learning, you are eligible to join HACU. The Faculty & Staff Caucus is an individual membership and is not transferable to another person.
3. Is my institution a member of HACU?
HACU has five categories of membership and these listings are located on our Web site.
