As we approach the holiday season, the college will be giving their employees some much-needed time off. Our offices will close for the holiday break at 4:30 pm on Friday, December 19 and will reopen on Monday, January 5th. Until then, our team is hard at work and hoping to visit schools as the weather permits this week. We hope to get November stipends to schools as well for distribution. If you require assistance or need support, please reach out to us as soon as possible so we can support you before the holiday break. 😉

Hi everyone! We are excited to share the very first issue of the revival of the Upward Bound newsletter, Dan De Cub. This will be a monthly update where you can find Challenge Session recaps, important dates, tutoring reminders, highlights from our schools, and fun UB facts and skill spotlights.
The name of our newsletter was a play on the grouping of some of the letters our program's name. Our newsletter's name was originally coined in 1993 for Davis AND Elkins College Upward Bound or DAN DE CUB.
Our goal is to make it easier for you and your families to stay connected with what’s happening in the program and to celebrate the great things you’re all doing each month. We hope you enjoy reading through this first issue, and I’d love any ideas you have for things you want to see included in future editions.
If you are interested in writing for the Newsletter, please don't hesitate to reach out to D&E TRIO Upward Bound program alumnus and Academic Advisor Jared VanMeter at [email protected]
