As of the 2017-2018 academic year, more than 2,000 students have
participated in the Educational Opportunity Program at Central
Connecticut State University. Thousands more have been part of
similar programs at other Connecticut colleges, including Southern
and Eastern Connecticut State Universities, and Wesleyan
University. This book is a celebration of all those students. Fifty
years after the program was created at CCSU, the students who have
passed through its doors—largely first-generation college
students from minority populations—are a testamentto how far the
program has come since its early days, when its mission was often
called into question. The histories chronicled herein shed light on
a program that has achieved a lasting, generational impact, and
which, over the course of successive summers, has indeed changed
thousands of lives.
