KEY POINTS:
QUOTABLES:
“With the Kaplan leadership program, it's not just about transferring to selective institutions. It's also making sure that Kaplan scholars are prepared and giving them the tools that they need to live their big dream and impact entire communities."
“It's definitely an asset for four-year institutions to have students in the classroom who have different lived experiences, different educational experiences because it just enriches the conversations and also what they're contributing to the campus as well."

Such an amazing platform. So many milestones have been made and so many more to come.
I like that the episodes aren’t too long but are still very informative
This is an amazing podcast. I am glad you are stepping up and talking about a sensitive topic that is not talked about enough. Thank you for sharing this information. It effects students in higher education and the effects carry over into the workforce when the students graduate. Some students are tainted because there was not enough taught on diversity and the students perspective are skewed.
Such a great approach on the different perspectives surrounding diversity and how it affects all communities! Enjoying each episode!
