Olin Mateo Morales Hyder, son of Janette Hyder, a counselor for the Educational
Opportunity Program, takes a close-up look at the Educational Opportunity Program
mural, unveiled during a Sept. 25 campus reception attended by more than 150
people. Janette developed the idea for the mural and received funding through
a 50th anniversary Golden Ideas Initiative. The giant artwork reflects the
struggles faced by students during the 1960s while fighting for civil rights
and educational equity. The mural will be permanently displayed in University
Hall, next to the EOP office.
