The guidance you can potentially receive from mentors is invaluable, and their ability to help you navigate the unknown paths and reach your goals more quickly (working smart) makes them so important. Mentors can help to guide, direct, and shape your present situation and future opportunities for the better. When it comes to education, students who have someone with great experience that they can lean on for advice and assistance can benefit greatly in their growth and development and self-actualization. Mentors can help mentees open the door to new possibilities. Earlier this month, three Open Dreams Scholars, Clement Ngosong, Mohamed Moumie and Georges Isacc Djimi made a visit to Franky Academic Complex in Yaounde to talk about the Open Dreams Mentorship program and how outstanding students can benefit from it. This April, many more teams of Open Dreams Scholars shall visit schools in Bamenda, Buea, Douala, Yaounde etc to meet students and share experiences with them and guide them on how they can become part of Open Dreams, as we prepare for the 2021 Cohort of Pre-Scholars for the upcoming Summer Academy. #CollegeAccess #HALIAccessAfricafrica #SDG4QualityEducation https://www.instagram.com/p/CMv4UQdBA8K/?igshid=9r1n72ws67bu

"Empathy is seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another, and feeling with the heart of another." In an effort to continue the engagement, conversation and dialogue around the BLM movement, Open Dreams - a college access organization is hosting a panel discussion today Saturday 6/27/2020 on Racism in Education, Perspectives in global universities. We will have scholars from around the world talking about their experiences, perspectives and the issues they've faced. The event is at 11am EST / 8am PST on Saturday and free to the public. Feel free to join and invite others who may be interested. -Hans Kullberg, Co-Founder https://www.eventbrite.com/e/racism-in-higher-education-cameroonian-student-experiences-abroad-tickets-109709189138 As Maya Angelou said, "I think we all have empathy, we may not have the courage to display it." #BLM #education #blmmovement #racism #collegeaccess https://www.instagram.com/p/CB7Jd8MgLy2/?igshid=1itedq4yxeti9

Do You Live in an Education Desert? Find Out with this Map.

You can't go to college if it's too far away. Or, at least, distance makes the commitment that much harder. This report over at The Chronicle for Higher Education uses the term "education desert" to refer to those parts of the country where you can't drive to a two- or four-year higher educational institution in one hour. Their analysis takes some thoughtful turns. For example, they do not count institutions that accept fewer than 30% of applicants, arguing that those are not "viable options" for most Americans. And one of their findings sure to get attention is this: Nationally, what do we know about the people who live in these deserts? Over three-fourths of them are white. That’s a disproportionate amount: White Americans constituted only 62 percent of the population in 2016. It is an interesting report to fuel thoughtful discussions about the relationship between class, race, and social mobility. And for some insights on the limits of the study, FlowingData offers a couple quick points of critique.   Read the full article
