		<description><![CDATA[Chicas, let me give you some sound advice: if you don&#8217;t have to, don&#8217;t go to college. As the default rate on student loans increases at an alarming rate, students are reconsidering their choice to attend a four-year institution. So should Latinas.

		<description><![CDATA[Latinas should learn from Angelina Jolie’s decision to undergo a double mastectomy because of a high chance of developing cancer due to her family history which she reveals in a recent op-ed piece in the New York Times. The American Cancer Society predicts more than 200,000 new cases in 2013 with this disease the most common among Hispanic women.

		<description><![CDATA[Of course this sensationalist headline is wrong&#8211;Latinas are not too dumb for college. But if you look at the data, the numbers document an education gap that hurts our families, communities, and our country.
