What a great infographic Andrew! I loved how you told Henry’s storyline it was very creative by illustrating it through a road. I liked how your visuals highlighted all the crucial points throughout Henery’s life. I am still astonished at the fact that Henry Gonzalez went to St. Mary’s and succeeded so much in his life. Thank you for this fantastic infographic.

This was such an informative infographic! I think it’s really nice to know that someone who was raised by immigrant parents and actually got toa trend St. Mary’s university made such a great accomplishment. It’s truly inspiring to see someone who was just in our shoes make it to the House of Representatives. He even had a debate with the legislators for 36 hours straight going against segregation, this really showed his commitment to the people. This was really easy to follow and the information provided just had me really interested in Henry B. Gonzalez, I am so glad I got to know a little bit about him because now I honestly just feel so inspired by his dedication.

Extremely great topic to raise awareness about especially when trying to educate people of St.Mary’s of all the great thing that they will have access to or already do have access to. Many alumni have made a direct difference and achieved so much due to the hard work and dedication they have put into being successful. I feel it gives a sense of encouragement to people who feel like they aren’t doing as much as they can but in reality we are all on the right track. Showing students that we are all capable of achieving what we want.
