MEET OUR NEW PREP DIRECTOR – Raul (Rudy) A. Reyna, Ph.D.
The Prefreshman Engineering Program is pleased
to announce the appointment of Dr. Raul (Rudy)
A. Reyna as Director of San Antonio PREP, TexPREP and Proyecto Access. Before joining PREP,
Dr. Reyna held a broad array of professional and
leadership positions. Beginning his career as a
member of the technical staff at Bell Telephone
Laboratories, he later moved to Director of User
Interfaces at SBC Technology Resources Inc.,
and ultimately, President of the SBC Foundation,
where his responsibilities included overseeing a
number of college preparatory programs similar

numerous professional, science, and engineering
organizations, he has served as a school board
FROM THE STAFF
member, as well as Chairman of the San Antonio
Education Partnership and Chairman of the
Education Committee of the San Antonio
Greater Chamber of Commerce. He brings to
PREP a strong statewide and local network
of executives, foundations, leaders, and
educators that will benefit the program
both financially and programmatically.
A native of San Antonio and a graduate of
South San Antonio High School, he shares
with others his passion for helping today’s
youth succeed in our knowledge driven
economy. “The future continues to hold
many challenges and our youth must
be prepared to compete in a global
market and deal with a more complex
world. Without a doubt, education is
the solution. And it is with programs
such as PREP that will provide them
with the tools and experiences
necessary to cope with these
new challenges.”
The San Antonio Prefreshman Engineering Program (PREP) celebrated its
25th summer of operation in 2003. The
program was conducted from June 9
to July 31, 2003 at the two campuses
of the University of Texas at San Antonio, St. Philip’s College, Northwest Vista
College, Palo Alto College, San Antonio
College, University of the Incarnate
Word, Our Lady of the Lake University,
and St. Mary’s University.
Program staff included 54 instructors,
77 program assistant mentors, and
three counselors.
Administrative
personnel at the nine PREP sites
consisted of 18 staff members.
of Human Services’ Summer Food
Service Program provided 1,220 of
our eligible students with a nutritious
meal during the summer program at
all of the PREP sites.
In-kind manpower and financial
support totaling $1,100,982 came
from local, state, and national public
and private sector agencies; 41% was
in-kind support.
The
program
received
1,807
applications from middle and high
school students in the Greater San
Antonio Area. Of the applicants,
1,525 were accepted to participate
in the program; 1,271 began the
program, and 1,101 completed it
successfully. Of the 1,101 students
who completed the program, 77 %
were members of minority groups
traditionally underrepresented in the
engineering and science professions,
and 56% were female. With approval
from the Texas Education Agency and
respective school districts, participants
were eligible to receive an elective
high school graduation credit (up to
1 unit) with the successful completion
of 2003 PREP.
To commemorate the 25th year of
PREP, Dr. Veronica Zamora-Campos
was selected to serve as the keynote
speaker at the Closing Day Assembly.
Dr. Zamora-Campos, a pediatrician
with the Southwest Center for
Pediatric Care, was a former San
Antonio PREP scholar and Program
Assistant Mentor. In her address,
she recalled her experiences at PREP
and conveyed to the students how
PREP helped to equip her with the
necessary tools to reach success. Hard
work, motivation, commitment, and
a strong support system were key in
realizing her dream.
Complementing a full academic
schedule,
students
attended
educational field trips with a focus
on science and engineering. The
City of San Antonio Department
of Community Initiatives provided
program funds for students to
attend career-based field trips to the
Challenger Learning Center at Brooks
AFB, the Aquarena Center at Southwest
Texas State University, NASA Johnson
Space Center, the Caverns of Sonora, To our friends, in-kind benefactors,
and the San Antonio Police Academy. donors, and supporters—we thank
you for your dedication and generosity.

PARTICIPANT INCENTIVES
The Texas Education Agency has authorized participating school
districts to award up to one unit of elective credit towards high
school graduation for the successful completion of each summer
of PREP. However, it is up to the individual school district boards to
approve the credit and the amount (up to 1 credit) to be awarded
for each summer’s participation. The majority of the local school
districts awarded credit for the successful completion of PREP.

PARTICIPANT
ASSISTANCE
With funding assistance of the City
of San Antonio, VIA bus passes were
made available to eligible students
from low-income families, enabling
students to ride the bus free of
charge.
The Summer Food Service Program
(SFSP), sponsored by the Texas
Department of Human Services,
provided daily free lunch to eligible
PREP participants. According to the
SFSP Income Guidelines, participants
at PREP sites were eligible to receive
daily free lunch based on the geographical census data and/or the
percentage of individual students
qualifying for free lunch.
The following sites qualified for all
students to receive a daily free lunch:
The University of Texas at San Antonio
(1604 and Downtown campuses), St.
Philip’s College, Palo Alto College, San
Antonio College, the University of the
Incarnate Word, Our Lady of the Lake
University, and St. Mary’s University.
At Northwest Vista College, only those
students who individually satisfied
the SFSP income criteria received
daily free meals. SFSP meals were
provided by Custom Foods, Sodexho,
Inc., and the ARAMARK Corporation.
In addition, three PREP counselors
provided support services to program
participants and staff at the nine San
Antonio PREP sites. Counselors assist
students in the areas of individual
and group counseling, and may offer workshops in areas such as time
management, peer pressure, and test
taking anxiety.
RETENTION
In an effort to increase the retention
rates of first year participants, a “second opportunity” was offered to students earning less than a 75% on the
first logic examination. The following
options were offered:
· A contract with the student’s
instructor and program assistant
mentor for additional instruction
of at least one hour daily for a
period of time but not beyond
the second logic examination
(generally two weeks after the
first examination). After one week
of individual tutoring, the student
was retested on the first logic examination. If the student scored
·
a 75% or better, this score was
assigned to the first examination
and the student was given a good
standing status (students scoring
below a 75% are asked to resign);
or
Resignation or dismissal from the
program.
A total of 100 students were given
a “second opportunity,” with 93 students passing the examination and
continuing the program. As a result,
the final retention rate for PREP 2003
was 87%, with 1,271 students entering
and 1,101 completing the program.
