Join the Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable’s 6th Professional Conference: “Continuing the Courageous Conversation: Policy, Strategy and Action”
June 2 – 3, 2014 Villanova University

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.

  • Immigrants
  • LGBQT Students
  • Students w/ Disabilities
