It's not a government program, and it's not a non-profit offering either. It's the product of citizen resolve--The Edgewood Village Scholars Program. Starting in elementary school, students living in resource-limited households are prepped for college. Launched in 2008, the program is yielding college graduates. Located in the Lansing, MI area, the program is assisted by Michigan State University and funded by various means, including local philanthropy. In Part 1, you met founder John Duley and three other program principals--Donna Kaplowitz, John Melcher, and Judy Gardi. Today, get to know Makela Rodgers (University of Southern California), Audriyana Jaber (Michigan State University), and Mohammed Fattah (University of Michigan) as they talk about the program.
