On Saturday, Oct. 27, Wayne State University, in collaboration with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, will host Steps for Success Saturday, a community event that provides local middle and high school students and their families with the information they need to properly prepare for college. The event, funded by the General Motors Foundation, is open to the community and will feature a number of specialized workshops covering topics such as general college preparation, scholarship and financial aid opportunities, and choosing the right college. "This event is an important opportunity to connect with youth in the community, strengthen students' confidence in themselves as college bound, and ensure that more students are prepared for the college application process," said Michelle Hunt Bruner, interim director of WSU's Academic Success Center. Steps for Success Saturday will take place from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Wayne State's General Lectures building.
