MADISON, Wis. — The inaugural class of the PEOPLE Program graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison on Friday.
PEOPLE — Pre-College Enrichment Opportunity for Learning Excellence — is designed to give minority students a jumpstart on college. The students apply for the program in either middle school or high school.
One of the students who graduated this weekend is Mohammed Farhoud. He said the program has given him a chance to pursue his passion: designing 3-D models.
