San Antonio: Dr. Abel Chavez Brings Real World Personal Experience to His New Role
He was the first kid in his family to go to college, and his parents wouldn't let him take on debt to finance his education. Dr. Abel Chavez has first-hand, real life experience navigating the challenges many of his students and their families face as he takes over as President at Our Lady of the Lake University. From a business perspective, Dr. Chavez is keenly aware of the role OLLU plays in preparing young people for the real world- and he has the stats to back it up. In this episode, SABJ Managing Editor Ed Arnold invites Dr. Chavez to share his inspirational story.
