A note (and video!) from Upward Bound

Dear University—CEHD Community:

Upward Bound (UB) is excited to share the following video with you. It's a 3-minute video posted on YouTube about the University’s (CEHD) TRiO Upward Bound college preparatory program. Specifically, the video highlights our summer program and the importance of quality summer learning opportunities for all students.

This video was created by award-winning film maker Jesse Roessler. Jesse generously gave of his time and talents to help us celebrate Johns Hopkins Summer Learning Day and enabled us to enter their video contest. (Every program that submitted a video has the chance to win two laptops!)

Please note that the video content also covers the expansion of this summer's Upward Bound curriculum to include Global Citizenship and Human Rights. We will be working to create even more opportunities for our students to expand their perspectives and gain cultural capital in the coming year.

Upward Bound would like to thank Karin Olson, Jesse Roessler and Fawn Wilderson-Legros for their assistance with the development of the Global Citizenship and Human Rights curriculum and the video.

Aloida
