Update on ASF
My alternative story form is about the Upward Bound Program that Coe College is in charge of during the school year as well as the summer. I have contacted the director of the program, Barbara Gibbs, and have lined up an interview to be held on Thursday April 22nd. I have complete a paper that provides research on the program as well as some good background information. The Upward Bound Program at Coe College is held to help students in the surrounding Cedar Rapids schools improve their grades and help them transition for college. It also helps these students with their financial troubles that may be keeping them from proceeding to college. The program is very interesting and I had no idea that Coe College held something like this for highschool students. I think that Coe College is taking a great step to help these students as well as promoting their college to the public so the student who is being helped may feel obligated to enroll into Coe.

I think this is a really cool thing to do. I also didn't know that Coe did this but it makes me proud that they do. I think you'll get a lot of good stuff for this story. Maybe even interview one of the kids in the program to see how it affected them. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI would definitely want to read this article. I think the Upward Bound program sounds really interesting but I don't know much about it, so I'd love to learn more! Hope your interview went well!
