Positive & Engaging
"My child enjoyed how engaging and hands-on the program was. She talked about everything for days, made new friends and had such a positive experience. She is excited to go to college and would like to attend this program, again, next summer!"
–Parent of youth program participant
Growing as a Critical Thinker
"Having the opportunity to take College Writing 110 through UWL's concurrent enrollment program allowed me to challenge myself in ways I wasn't always afforded at a rural public school. I grew as a writer, a researcher, and a critical thinker."
–Alexis Gilkes, 2014 Westby High School graduate
