When Jacqueline DeWalt was a UW-Madison graduate student in 2000, she enrolled her son in the PEOPLE (Pre-college Enrichment Opportunity Program for Learning Excellence) Program, created in 1999.After enrolling her son in the program, DeWalt soon began working for PEOPLE, eventually becoming its executive director.“People say there’s an achievement gap as though it’s the students’ fault,” DeWalt said. “I say there’s an opportunity gap, because students aren’t getting access to opportunities that might excite them.”PEOPLE has provided educational opportunities for the past 17 years, preparing low-income and minority students in Wisconsin for college. The program has expanded from 66 students at its inception to more than 1,300 students today.According to DeWalt, the program’s extensiveness separates it from other pre-college programs and its structure has contributed to its considerable success.PEOPLE runs from elementary school through high school, offering after-school tutoring, summer classes on the UW-Madison campus and internship opportunities. The program supports students across Wisconsin, including those in Madison, Milwaukee and all 11 federally recognized native tribes in the state.Students who complete the PEOPLE program and meet UW-Madison admission requirements are eligible for a full-tuition scholarship and continuous academic support throughout their undergraduate experience, including access to tutors and advisors.According to the program’s statistics, 100 percent of PEOPLE students graduate from high school, and 94 percent attend higher education institutions; nearly half enroll at UW-Madison.
