IN MEMORIAM Mr. Salvador Hernandez –

A life honored and remembered

July 23, 1964 – June 5, 2016 We would like to take a moment an honor our dear friend and colleague, Mr. Salvador Hernandez, who will be deeply missed. Salvador Hernandez was born and raised in El Paso, Texas and began studying martial arts at the age of nine. Sal, as he preferred to be called, was an accomplished martial artist and dedicated practitioner of Kenpo Karate, in which he held a second degree black belt; he had also received his black belt in Badokan. In 1997, Sal began training students of all skill levels in various martial art forms and prepared students for city, state and national championships. In 2005, he joined the P3 family as a Fit 4 Life instructor and later became an Adjunct Lecturer for several one-credit Physical Education courses. Sal's experience, positive outlook on life, kindness and excellent rapport with his students quickly gained lot of attention amongst our participants and community. Participants in his classes frequently expressed their appreciation for Sal’s dedication by stating, “attending Sal's classes is always a rewarding experience” or that they would continue to enroll “with this instructor as long as he was the one offering the course". Words such as 'amazing', 'great', 'attentive', 'knowledgeable', 'interesting', 'enjoyable' and 'excellent' were commonly used by participants to describe their experience in Sal’s courses. We were tremendously saddened to learn that Sal passed away on June 5, 2016. He was surrounded by his family and friends. Sal was a great instructor who will be deeply missed and best remembered for his absolute dedication to his family, his great sense of humor and genuine acts of friendship.

P3 FEATURED STUDENT Professional and Public Programs (P3) is a proud part of the University of Texas at El Paso family, and as such, is always looking for opportunities to provide support for the university’s student body. This semester, P3 would like to take the opportunity to feature one of our current undergraduate assistants, Ms. Sarah N. Ramirez as a token of our appreciation for a job well done.

Ms. Sarah N. Ramirez, undergraduate assistant for the Professional Training and Development program at P3, started working as a workstudy student a little over three years ago. Her collaboration has been critical to our programs ever since.

Name: Sarah Nicole Ramirez Major: History Classification: Senior Hometown: El Paso, TX

“I have worked at Professional and Public Programs for almost three years now and I have loved every minute of it. I have learned a lot about myself, things I did not even know I could do. It has really brought me out of my shell. The one thing I have really learned is the idea of preparation. It’s like that famous quote by Benjamin Franklin, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!” This experience has been truly rewarding and I am grateful to have been given this opportunity to learn and work with such amazing people.”

– Sarah Ramirez

“

Working as an instructor for Professional and Public Programs has been an enormous blessing to my life. As an undergraduate student of The University of Texas at El Paso, I would never have imagined that I would have obtained a part-time job with the rewards and opportunities presented to me by P3.

I began with teaching adult and youth Aquatics, and then ventured into teaching Theatre Arts for youth. I was able to develop my craft as a future educator, and gain real-world applications in applying learned teaching pedagogy and professional management. I am now a certified Theatre Arts teacher employed at Burges High School. Professional and Public Programs was my foundation; an excellent and professional support system for myself to develop the gift of giving back to our El Paso community. Thank you P3!”

“

The Technical Report Writing Workshop has enhanced the transition from police recruit to police officer full circle in regards to report writing. The 3 part approach to law enforcement report writing has been a huge success in giving our new officers a better look and to really understand the impact and high importance of documenting police incidents. Dr. Hendricks from UTEP took the time to put together a well-rounded program and teach it to our new officers with a fun and enjoyable approach." In-Service Training Sergeant
