Description
The goals of the conference were to introduce community college students to university life experiences and motivate them to transfer to a four-year university. Ascender students from San Antonio College, South Texas College and Austin Community College attended.
Students arrived on June 9th and checked into their dorms in Jester Hall. They were then given free time to explore the campus and the city with their chaperones.
The conference began on June 10 with a welcome from CTN CEO, Dr. Chavez which was followed by an icebreaker led by Stacy Ybarra, conference director. Participants were given a crown to wear and asked to name their college and one random fact about themselves.
