Women\u2019s and Gender Studies is happy to announce that Daniela Mui\u00f1o, a junior student minoring in the program, was selected to receive the prestigious $5,000 Hispanic Heritage Scholarship.<\/p>\n

Mui\u00f1o is from Miami, Florida and plans to graduate in 2018. She is very proud of her Latino roots and what it means to receive this recognition. Currently, Mui\u00f1o is a facilitator with the Young Women Leaders Program and a member of MSC Pride Coalition\u2019s Committee for AY 2014-2015.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels amazing to have been selected for this award, not only because I was recognized as an exceptional student, but also as an exceptional Latina student. It makes me feel like I am exceptional not despite my heritage, but because of my heritage, because of where I come from, and because of who I am. I want everyone who has ever been marginalized by others to feel this way \u2013 it\u2019s my ultimate goal in life,” says Mui\u00f1o.<\/p>\n

On becoming an animator, Mui\u00f1o stated: “I want to reach those who I can\u2019t physically reach and tell them that they can, that they\u2019re beautiful, and that they\u2019re valid, no matter who they are or where they come from. I want to tell the stories that aren\u2019t told, and I want young queer girls and girls of color to find themselves in the media I make for them.”\u00a0Mui\u00f1o closed with, “what I\u2019ve learned in this amazing department has given me the knowledge I need to create meaningful work, as well as giving me the courage and support to pursue my lifelong goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Hispanic Heritage Scholarship is the highest accolade\u00a0in Orlando for Latino students. The Hispanic Heritage Scholarship Fund of Metro Orlando, which provided the scholarship, is the largest non-profit organization in Central Florida dedicated to providing scholarships to Hispanic students pursuing a college or university degree.
