To Attend White House College Opportunity Summit

On Thursday, December 4th, Mr. John Birch, MET2 Executive Director and Dr. Karen Wosczyna-Birch of the Regional Center for Next Generation Manufacturing will join President Obama, the First Lady and Vice President Biden at the White House College Opportunity Summit. The Summit will bring together colleges and universities, business leaders, nonprofits and others that are committed to supporting more college opportunities for students across the country.

This year’s summit will focus on building sustainable collaborations in communities with strong K-12 and higher education partnerships to encourage college going, and supporting colleges to work together to dramatically improve persistence and increase college completion, especially for first generation, low-income, and underrepresented students.
