Students in McNair Scholars Program prepare for their futures
TerraCycle Include USA
University of Wisconsin-Stout students Ashley Spinler and De’Andre Jones are coming down the home stretch. They plan to graduate from the university and the Ronald E. McNair Scholars Program in May of 2016.
They will rank among the nearly 70,000 university alumni and will be among the first in their families to graduate from college.
Spinler and Jones will also join hundreds of students nationwide to graduate from the federally funded McNair program for first generation and low-income students.
Spinler, of New Prague, Minn., is majoring in psychology with a double minor in human development and family studies and English writing.
One of her highlights as a student at UW-Stout has been interning at the local chapter of the Boys & Girls Club of America.
She also helped form a TerraCycle committee through GreenSense.
