A Sul Ross State University student needs a little help to make the trek to Washington, D.C.

Dominic Staliano Leal was selected out of a number of applications sent to U.S. Congressman Ciro D. Rodruguez to attend the 56th Presidential Inauguration.

Leal has an invitation to attend the historic ceremony, but he still needs the funds to make the trip.

Leal is a senior at the university and serves as the Sul Ross Campus Radio General Manager.

Anyone interested in assisting Leal can contact him via e-mail at dleal800@sulross.edu.
