Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Quest Scholars Network
The Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Quest Scholars Network (Quest+) aims to create an engaged and supportive community for low-income and first-generation students as well as their allies in addition to ensuring equal opportunities for all low-income and first-generation students on Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s campus. Quest+ is affiliated with Questbridge but you do not need to be a Questbridge Match to join!
Student Enrichment Services worked with Quest+ from the very beginning. During the fall of 2012, Quest Scholars shared their experience as lower-income students with university administrators, and in response a focus group project was convened to better understand the experience of lower-income and/or first-generation students at Âé¶¹´«Ã½.
Over the course of two years, Quest+ partnered with students, faculty, and staff to develop a proposal for the development of an office that would support lower-income students at Âé¶¹´«Ã½. That office, Student Enrichment Services, opened its doors as part of Campus Inclusion and Community in October 2014.
Today Student Enrichment Services works closely with Quest+, and proudly serves as advisors.
