UMaine recognizes TRIO Student Support Services graduates, WABI reports
WABI (Channel 5) reported the University of Maine recognized students who are part of TRIO Student Support Services, a federally funded program that works with students who are first-generation, income-eligible, or have a disability. Seventeen students who will be earning their bachelor’s degrees in either May, August or December were recognized, WABI reported. TRIO SSS provides personalized support, advising and mentoring throughout a student’s college career. “It’s just not my work that got me here. It’s the combination of so many people lifting me up to get me here. So, thank you all so very much for what you’ve done for me. I can’t put it into words,” said TRIO SSS graduate Alexis Dunham.
