Gabriel Islas, a graduating UTRGV student and Interdisciplinary EC-6 ESL major, will graduate on Dec. 14 at the Bert Ogden Arena in Edinburg during Fall 2019 Commencement. Islas’ journey to his own acceptance of being gay proved to be difficult, and one particular assignment during his time at UTRGV proved to seriously test him emotionally.  He created a hand-crafted children’s book, and a short video, entitled “The Who Behind the Me.” The process left him vulnerable, he said, but he wanted to be transparent and, as a future educator, he wants to make a difference for future students.
