Upward Bound to Present 7th Shadow Day

MCC Upward Bound is proud to collaborate with nine MCC Downtown professors to present the 7th Upward Bound Shadow Day, Tuesday, November 6. Upward Bound is a pre-collegiate program that targets students who will be in the first generation of their family to go to college. The goal of Shadow Day is for students to have a non-intimidating while simultaneously inspiring "first-dip" into a future career or major. Students will attend one or two MCC classes in the morning and debrief over lunch.

The following professors are among those who have agreed to help with this project: Elizabeth Mandly, Joe Scanlon, Melanie Rivera (also an Upward Bound alumna), Craig Waleed, Njeru Murage, Erin Nelson, Michelle Parker, Eileen Radigan, and Dina Giovanelli. Students will benefit from their passions and expertise in Human Services, Sociology, Criminal Justice, English, History, Psychology, Education, and Biology. The students will be encouraged to participate, take notes, ask questions and engage in these classes.
