Reception for EOP Resilient Scholars 2015.
Congratulations to all of the graduates!
Reception for EOP Resilient Scholars 2015.
On May 1, 2015 the Educational Opportunity Programs (EOP) proudly celebrated the graduation of six remarkable students in its Resilient Scholars Program (RSP). The mission of RSP is to empower former foster youth through higher education. Without support services, less than 1% of all foster youth who attend a four year university graduate from college, yet studies suggest that programs such as RSP can raise that graduation rate to 20%.
This year's graduates are:
Angel Arevalo - BA, Communication Studies
Walter Harris - BA, Child Development with a minor in Africana studies
JAsemein Hicks - BA, Child and Adolescent Development
Destiny Melody Johnson - MS, College Counseling and Student Services
Demontae "Tae" Thompson - BA, Business Management
Demonte "Tray" Thompson - BS, Finance
