The Precollege academic year offerings provide local youth with weekly tutoring and enrichment opportunities. Our outreach efforts serve African-American, Native American, Latino, and Hmong youth from around the area.  Over 100 UW-L undergraduate students from diverse ethnic backgrounds serve as tutors and mentors each semester.  Participants and college mentors within these programs constitute a unique community of cross-age, cross-cultural learners brought together for the purpose of educational advancement, cultural acknowledgment and social enrichment.
