Notre Dame has long been known for its support of students from diverse backgrounds, from immigrant communities in the early 20th century to veterans on the G.I. Bill. Now, the University is continuing to expand the ways that it ensures the success and flourishing of all Notre Dame students, including first-generation, low socioeconomic status, or differently prepared learners.
In this episode of For Good, Maria McKenna, Director of the Transformational Leaders Program (TLP) and the AnBryce Scholars Initiative, discusses how Notre Dame helps students reach their full potential by meeting each student where they are, accompanying them throughout their formative journey, and educating the whole person—in mind, body, and spirit.
New episodes of For Good: Stories from Notre Dame drop on select weekdays at giving.nd.edu/stories and the ND Loyal YouTube channel. You can also listen to the podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
A sincere thank you to the Notre Dame Family for making stories like these possible! It's because of you that Notre Dame is such a powerful force for good in the world.
