1 Preamble Hispanic Business Students Association Constitution Whereby, the Hispanic Business Student Association exists to provide support and opportunities to US Hispanics. In the US, the Hispanic population has experienced significant growth. However, enrollment in top business schools has not seen a corresponding rise in Hispanic students. In this context, these schools have not fully benefited from the wealth of Hispanic students ideas or other input. Consequently, the Hispanic Community and US population as a whole has not fully benefited from their potential leadership. We recognize that serious challenges exist for Hispanic business students. We, the members of the Hispanic Business Students Association at the University Of Michigan Ross School Of Business, are therefore resolved to enhance and enrich the experiences of Hispanic students at the University of Michigan interested in business careers.
