The Wichita State University College of Applied Studies announced today the launch of Men of Color: Educators of Tomorrow, a new mentor education program for young men of color interested in pursuing careers in teaching and other education-related paths.
The launch is focused on high school students — particularly freshmen—in Wichita Public Schools, as well as male students of color majoring in education-related programs at Wichita State. Participants will have the opportunity to work with a mentor or success coach, engage in career exploration along with their families, and participate in service-learning projects.
