College for Teen Parents

WhitneeG — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 12:03:15 -0600

I am enrolled in AFLP(Adolescent Family Life Program). The program is designed to get teens with children (girls 19 and younger, and boys 21 and under)to finish high school and attain a job. The program helps with filing for FAFSA, college financail aid, if the student requests it. I propose that another seperate program can be established in cooperation with the AFLP/CalWorks programs specifically designed to push these teen parents more toward a career than Welfare.

Preparing Youth for College Life

q-battle — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 21:15:56 -0600

A lot of students are unaware of what to expect from college. This project will encourage students to keep up their grades and apply to colleges and HOPE with the help of past seniors. Also, I want to encourage other graduates to go back to their high schools and educate the youth. Show them that if no one else cares, you care. Because the one thing we are missing in society is the giving back aspect. The people who succeed never pass down the secrets, and never help the others coming after them to get over their own obstacles; especially in the black community.

Mentor for Scholarships

I would love to start a program where college students that got scholarships for college would show high school juniors and seniors how it's done. For instance how to write the essays, what the judges really want, some of the best scholarships and scholarship websites. Overall, just to give good advice.

Terpsichore: The Mississippi State University Dance Theater Company

ldw106 — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 20:49:02 -0600

Students attending Mississippi State University have for some time craved more dance opportunities outside of the few existing dance groups under MSU student organizations. These organizations are great and definitely worthy of recognition for the work that they do, but lack the true individual expression desired by most dancers at this university. MSU offers only two dance classes and some dance based aerobics courses, but although the Sanderson Center is equipped with wall-mounted barres, the studios really are insufficient for hosting real skill based dance courses.
