News, Eau Claire
The thought of hundreds of middle school students descending upon Chippewa Valley Technical College doesn’t faze Anne Weber and Maggie Meyers a bit.
In fact, they welcome it.
Weber, a student recruitment coordinator, and Meyers, an admissions advisor, both for CVTC, said preparing for life after grade 12 isn’t just a high schooler’s game anymore.
The women said asking students what they want to be when they grow up is at the bottom of the list. Instead, they invite middle school students from throughout CVTC’s 11-county district to the college, show them different programs, encourage them to speak with instructors and give them a fun, interactive experience at a young age.
