Throughout #HispanicHeritageMonth, #CTXsocial will feature student stories from across campus, where students share about their family history, culture, and heritage. --- "For me, my Hispanic heritage means pride and resilience. My abuelos were always up at the crack of dawn tending to their garden, cooking for neighbors in need, and volunteering at their church. My parents worked hard to ensure my brothers and I had an opportunity at a good education, even taking on an extra job as custodians at the private school we attended to help pay for it. The neighborhood school in our majority Hispanic neighborhood was overpopulated and underfunded. My family has always believed in me and been willing to sacrifice whatever they needed for me to attain my educational goals, even having tamale plate sales run by all my aunts and uncles to help pay for my college tuition. I could not be more proud to be a first-generation college graduate and now a doctoral student. I chose Concordia University Texas because the Ed.D. program allowed me to continue working while I attended classes. Even though my schedule means early mornings and long nights, I am fueled by la dignidad (pride) and la resistencia (resilience) that runs through my blood." - Rebekah Gomez #firstgen #hispanicheritage

Monday, November 2 marks the celebration of Dรญa de los Muertos, or the Day of the Dead. Originating in Mexico, Dรญa de los Muertos celebrates and honors loved ones who have passed away. The day focuses on sharing love and respect for the lives they lived and celebrating the communion we have with each other in Christ that transcends death. As an #HispanicServingInstitution, Concordia University Texas invites all members of the CTX family to participate in Dรญa de los Muertos by honoring the loved ones who have gone before us, and by faith are not dead, but alive in Christ. Take time to honor their memory through prayer and celebration of their lives. Dรญa de los Muertos is not a time for mourning, but for celebration. #diadelosmuertos โ€œBrothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.โ€ -1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 #dayofthedead #CTXsocial

Meet #CTX Peer Tutor: Hope Womack! "Hello, my name is Hope Womack! I am a senior nursing student, Vice President of @ctxsna and a nursing Peer Tutor. If I am not tutoring or studying, you can find me babysitting, hanging out with family and friends, or cuddling my super cute one-month-old niece! I have enjoyed being a Peer Tutor because it is an honor to be able to notice the change in a personโ€™s attitude and confidence from when the session begins to when it ends. Tutoring is truly such a rewarding experience, especially because I understand what itโ€™s like to struggle at something. In my first semester of nursing school, I used Peer Tutors all the time and it helped me so much. The Peer Tutor I met with helped challenge me because he understood my potential and wanted me to see it in myself. If you are hesitant to reach out to a tutor, donโ€™t be! We all want to help you and understand it can be scary reaching out, but we have all been through it before. Not only are the tutors here to help you during your sessions, but we are also here to support and encourage you throughout nursing school. Please feel free to reach out to me through the tutoring app or send me an email with any questions you have. I look forward to helping you all through your nursing school journey!"

Beloved Concordia Professor Emeritus, Harold "Hal" Rutz, went home to the Lord early in the morning on Tuesday, November 17, 2020. He is survived by his two daughters, one son, and four grandchildren. Hal and his family came to Austin in the summer of 1964 when he accepted the position as head of the Music Department at Concordia University (then Concordia Lutheran College). He taught music theory, music history, hymnology, piano and organ lessons, and conducted the college choir until retiring in 1996, receiving Concordia's Martin J. Neeb Teaching Excellence Award by vote of the student body that year. His former students now serve in teaching and church music positions throughout the country and frequently remained in touch, even decades later, sharing concert programs they directed or other personal and professional accomplishments.

Jennifer Glass is a current student in the Adult Degree Program at Concordia University Texas, earning her Bachelor of Arts. Her path to Concordia is an incredible story of God's sovereignty, combining life-changing faith, connections and opportunities. #CTXsocial A couple of years ago, Glass was wrestling internally and, in her words, often gave up when faced with obstacles. While at church on Mother's Day, Glass met Nichola Cotto, the founder of the nonprofit We Are Not Broken. We are not Broken exists to share the stories behind the scars that women have. In contrast to the photoshopped pictures plastered across magazine covers, social media and everywhere else, Cotto uses We Are Not Broken to share real pictures of real women with real stories. #CTXsocial #WeAreNotBroken CONCORDIA.EDU CTX Student Shares Her Story with We Are Not Broken | Concordia University Texas

#CTX students like Nayeli remind us that creating places on campus for students to connect is important. "As an out-of-state transfer student, who currently doesn't have a vehicle in TX, living on campus is convenient because each campus building is a short walk from the dorm. In addition, I can quickly join an activity, attend an event, or hang out with friends. Based on my experiences so far this school year, even when I have my car here, I plan to continue to live on campus, because, being on campus the majority of the day fosters an academic mindset which is my catalyst for success. Most importantly, CTX is where I CHOOSE to call home." - Nayeli We are excited about on-campus living for more students! Our new residence hall will nearly double the residential capacity.
