News, Dunn County
Whether attending a jump-start class together, building team skills on the ropes course or having a pizza break in the new Multicultural Student Services office at UW-Stout, Stoutward Bound scholars build a community together before school even starts.
"Stoutward Bound is an early-start bridge program for incoming first-year multicultural students,” said Mai Khou Xiong, interim executive director of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and MSS director. "Coordinated through MSS, students join a unique, supportive living and learning community that prepares them for success and helps them transition from high school to college life."
