The American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education (AAHHE) represents professional academics, researchers, educators, and students in the United States of America and focuses on issues affecting Hispanics in higher education.[1][2] It functions as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) membership society.[3]

History

AAHHE was originally the Hispanic caucus of the American Association of Higher Education (AAHE) and was formed in 2005 after that organization went defunct, to address the under representation of Hispanics in higher education.[4][5][6] It does so by highlighting scholarship focusing on the social issues of Hispanics, the shaping of educational policies, and the professional development of Hispanic faculty and administrators.[3][7] The organization holds an annual meeting and offers a fellowship program for graduate students and junior faculty.[8][9][10]
