Augsburg students, faculty, staff, and community are invited to the release of the TRIO McNair Scholars Success Stories video.
The video highlights three McNair alumni success stories. Other McNair alumni stories will also be shared. The event will celebrate Augsburg McNair Scholars Program where we increase graduate degree awards for students from underrepresented segments of society; first-generation college students with financial need, and/or members of a group underrepresented in graduate education. McNair participants have demonstrated strong academic potential and will prepare for graduate study through involvement in research and other scholarly activities. The McNair Scholars Program was created by the U.S. Congress in honor of Dr. Ronald E. McNair, the astronaut, and physicist who was among the first African Americans in the U.S. space program.
