SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The issue of immigration continues to hover at the forefront of society. Whether in politics, society, or faith groups, the topic provides a challenge to every strata of American society. Immigrants from Spanish-speaking nations are pouring into the United States, and with them come new tests straining at the fabric of this country. Many immigrants come with strong cultural moorings and minimal, if any, education. This lack of education is trapping immigrants into an economic malaise that inhibits their ability to advance in American society. This project examined how Wilson College created a department within their academic structure where Spanish-speaking only individuals can pursue educational opportunities. The project included the participation of Wilson College administration, faculty, and staff, newly enrolled students, pastors and ministers, professional translators, and many other bilingual individuals to bring it to fruition. Results saw the genesis of a program that ultimately will be offering degrees in time that are completely in the Spanish language, 100 percent online, and with affordable tuition. The empowering aspects of the Holy Spirit coupled with education create a new dynamic in a people whose cultural value system has minimized education. Based upon responses in the surveys completed by the first group of students that completed the initial phase of implementation, their confidence has increased after successfully completing the first phase of classes. Many have embraced the process and overcome preconceived notions about education that were placed on them by their Hispanic culture.
