Hear from our students Leah Foltman Sociology "I lack things my peers have; I’m not in the majority race, I don’t have the financial means, I don’t have the cultural capital, the experience … But at the university level — the resources they have provided me have helped me to be successful no matter what." Kemmesha Thomas Public Health & Community Health Education "UWL programs, like the McNair Scholars, made me realize so many things I’m interested in. I can develop more knowledge and enjoy doing research."
