Professors to Local Students: You Can Do it Too!

On April 18, members of the Fordham faculty who have overcome significant challenges and circumstances to excel in life and college shared their personal stories with local middle school students from the nearby community. At this year’s Vision Day, the faculty members sat down with students from IS 318 and encouraged them with a message that, no matter the circumstances, they, too, could overcome, excel, and go to college too. The event was sponsored by the Latin American and Latino Studies Institute.
