Wednesday, May 17, 2023
​Wilder Foundation Auditorium
 ​



Wallin Education Partners will host a Community Conversation with Dr. Michael J. Sorrell of Paul Quinn College. The visit will explore a new approach to serving low-income students interested in pursuing a college degree at an HBCU but may prefer to remain in Minnesota. Dr. Sorrell is also interested in a potential collaboration with Agribusiness, Healthcare, Tech, Financial Services, and Retail sectors to co-develop industry-specific curriculum to strengthen the future talent pipeline and increase job retention.

Picture
​Wallin Education Partners supports students from low-income backgrounds through a unique scholarship that includes financial aid as well as comprehensive support throughout college.  A unique and highly effective model, Wallin scholars have a six-year graduation rate of 90%. Since 1992, Wallin has supported over 6,000 students who have attended 80 different colleges throughout the upper Midwest and many who attend HBCUs across the country.
