Meet Our Students

“The TRIO program showed me that my past does not dictate where I can go and how to utilize certain resources to help me grow both as a learner as well as an individual in the world.”

Kameryn Norse ’22Global Studies

Bobby knew he wanted to chase storms his first year in college, so his advisor connected him with a “bucket list” opportunity which led to a college partnership that other aspiring student storm chasers can now enjoy!

Bobby Saba ’22Atmospheric Sciences
