Membership Form

Thank you for your interest in joining as an Official Member.

HPN is an organization for Faculty and Staff at Texas State University committed to the advancement of Hispanics in higher education. Official membership status is extended to graduate students employed by Texas State. 

Additionally, welcome undergraduates and graduate students not employed by TXST to attend our general meetings and participate in HPN sponsored events. Unfortunately, official membership status is not extended to undergraduate students (regardless of employment status) and graduate students not employed by Texas State.
