During the event, middle-school student will visit booths staffed by college administrators and faculty who demonstrate how education beyond high school can tie in to each student’s career aspirations. Students will visit all of the booths, "graduate," and get their pictures taken in a cap and gown. Decorations and refreshments will create a real carnival-like atmosphere.

To cap off the day, we have invited back author and Harvard sophomore, Alejandro Gac-Artigas, our speaker from 2005. We are planning to deliver his book, Yo Alejandro, to the attendees prior to the event, so the children can prepare questions ahead of time. At the end of the talk, Alejandro will autograph copies of the book for the attendees.

Please check your e-mail for our recent request for donations! Also, any MASFAA member at the hotel Tuesday afternoon is more than welcome to come by and visit the Carnival.
