The Roadrunner Rundown: Call Me MISTER
In this edition of the Roadrunner Rundown, President Davidson talks with School of Education's Rashad Anderson about an innovative program designed to put more Black male teachers in the classroom.
RED: First-generation student dances her way to graduation
Rachael Haynes has dreamed of being a dancer since she was a child and would spend her time at the Boys and Girls club practicing and perfecting her moves. Her passion led her to Metropolitan State University of Denver’s Dance Program, where she became the first in her family to attend college. Nearly 60% of undergrads at MSU Denver are first-generation students like Haynes. Now pregnant, she plans to balance motherhood with her dream of owning a dance studio.
The Rundown: Rowdy's Corner
In this edition of the Roadrunner Rundown, President Janine Davidson, Ph.D., checks out the new Rowdy's Corner (formerly Roadrunner Food Pantry) with Rowdy's Corner Associate Sam Tornato Sotelo.
