UW-La Crosse started hosting an Upward Bound program in 1979. Since then we've helped hundreds of
area high school students focus on success in high school and in college. A TRIO program,
funded by the U.S.
Department of Education, UB's mission is to provide academic and motivation- al support so area students, who
might be the first in their family to attend college and/or who come from low-income homes, can be accepted
at and graduate from college.
"And so tonight, I ask every American to commit to at least one year or more of higher education or career training.
This can be community college or a four-year school; vocational training or an apprenticeship. But whatever the training
may be, every American will need to get more than a high school diploma." - President
Barack Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress, February 24, 2009
