EOP Mural Unveiling, September 25, 2007

EOP Mural


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.
