Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable’s 6th Professional Conference
Posted by Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable on May 19, 2014
The Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable’s 6th Professional Conference entitled – “Continuing the Courageous Conversation: Policy, Strategy and Action”.
After last year’s conference “Building on 20 Years: Continuing Courageous Conversations Toward 2025”, we received feedback that there was still a need for continued conversation, but it was also time to start to create action plans to ensure the success of all students. This year’s conference will look at “special populations” and how policy shapes the experiences of these populations on college campuses.
Dr. Keith Leaphart, Chairman of the Lenfest Foundation, Entrepreneur and Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine will keynote and present the charge to the college access and success community at the Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable conference.
