An Outreach Program with Roosevelt High School

This Program with Roosevelt high school is entitled “Heroes of Color.” The program begins with Roosevelt students visiting the Lewis & Clark campus, after which L&C students go to Roosevelt and work with the high school students to develop presentations about different historically significant people of color largely forgotten in American history. The program ends with a “shadowing” program in which interested Roosevelt students shadow L&C student for part of a day, giving them a real taste of the world of higher education.
