• These school workshops and this whole program have been the highlight of my thirteen years of teaching. -- a teacher

• My child is determined to go to college now. He used to think college was too expensive and he wouldn't be smart enough. Your workshops and the scholarship have really made a difference. Thanks! -- a parent

• I began working at the age of 13 and while I have enjoyed moderate success in my working career, I have often wondered what my future would have held if someone like yourself visited my school in 5th grade and said, "you can go to college!" I know that there are children in your audiences that do not discuss college in their homes, but now through your program, have the opportunity to talk about college and begin thinking about their futures beyond high school. -- a school administrator

• Great information that all these kids deserve to have! -- a teacher

• You are right on target. We can make connections to our Writing Process Curriculum. The presentation was outstanding. Great connections to students’ lives. -- a teacher

• Thank you for coming in and talking to us about college. I really enjoyed having you here. I learned a lot about college. I wonder which college would be best for me. I never knew there are 3600 -- a student

• Thank you so much for coming into my classroom and sharing with our students. It was a great presentation! My students went on talking about it throughout the rest of the day. It looks like some good seeds were sown. Your open and encouraging manner with kids really gave them an ability to begin thinking more widely. My 6th grade and I spent the half hour right after you left continuing the conversation. There are so many dreams that got watered that day. Thank you for your time and dedication. -- a teacher
