Blugold Beginnings Staff
The folks who make it happen
The purpose of the Blugold Beginnings Program is to educate and inspire students, especially underrepresented, low income or first generation students, to believe that a post-secondary education is important, attainable, and available at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and other institutions.
The Blugold Beginnings Program works with local school districts to provide a comprehensive college connection for 5th graders through graduating seniors. Blugold Beginnings hires current UW-Eau Claire students as mentors for students in elementary through high school. The mentors develop relationships with students, act as role models, and provide college knowledge to mentees.
