TUCSON, Ariz. — Harvard University’s most recent freshman class consists of only 12.6 percent Hispanic and/or Latino students. That's why we’re celebrating one Tucson student excited to embrace her culture at the university.
Seventeen-year-old Itzel Rosales and her moms found out she made early acceptance to Harvard last week.Part of it comes from what she’s accomplished at such a young age. She was the campaign manager for Congressman Raul Grijalva in this election.“People that have fire in them, people that want to make great things. I think part of that comes from how I grew up,” said Rosales.Her mom’s sisters inspired her.Her uncle asked the important questions.
“My parents were activists, you know. There are pictures of me at 3 years old at protests,” said Rosales.“Look, the world is beautiful, it’s going to be okay,” she said. She said she plans to carry each of them with her when she starts in the fall of 2023. She wants to major in Gender Women Studies with a minor in Creative Writing and a focus on Pre-law.
“I really wanted to be a part of something bigger where I could show everybody what people of color can do and especially as a woman. So that was really important to me.”Reyna Preciado is a reporter for KGUN 9, she joined the KGUN 9 team in July of 2022 after graduating Arizona State University.
