University of the PACIFIC

Saturday Partners in Education (PIE)

 

Saturday P.I.E. is designed to bring youth ages 6-12 to the University of the Pacific and provide them with a glimpse into college life. While interacting with college students on campus, youth participants follow an agenda consisting of exciting educational activities that prompt the participants to further consider attending college and demonstrate the reality that college may be more within reach than previously perceived.

Call the CCI at (200) 946-2444 for more information.  To register you can download a  Saturday PIE Registration Form and return it to CCI with your registration fee.
