Alongside Bott, Magen Babcock, Dominique Wilkerson, and Pilar Olvera will present for those interested in M3 and our project that seek to transform the future of Milwaukee through education. The team will discuss the findings from various focus groups of students who graduated from Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) and are now currently enrolled at Milwaukee Area Technical College (MATC). Babcock, Wilkerson, and Olvera will suggest how both institutions can improve their support for these students in their transition to college. Moreover, researchers will discuss the results found on the challenges students faced, their academic advising experience, and their sense of preparedness in various core subjects.
