Outreach To Returning Adults
Description: While the KnowHow2GOKy Web site provides resources for all adult learners, a key component of the effort - Kentucky’s Project Graduate initiative - focuses on more than 11,000 Kentucky adults who have 90 or more credit hours but no bachelor’s degree. All of Kentucky’s public colleges and universities and nine independent colleges and universities are participating in Project Graduate, an outreach that consists primarily of a direct mail effort and Web presence, coupled with a high-touch experience. Colleges and universities are contacting their former students with letters and Project Graduate postcards that list the incentives they are offering to encourage their former students to re-enroll and earn a degree. In addition to the Project Graduate Web site, the Adults section of the KnowHow2GOKy Web site also offers information about this program.

Famous quotes containing the words returning and/or adults:
“I do not keep a diary. Never have. To write a diary every day is like returning to one’s own vomit.”
—J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)
“Young children make only the simple assumption: “This is life—you go along....” He stands ready to go along with whatever adults seem to want. He stands poised, trying to figure out what they want. The young child is almost at the mercy of adults—it is so important to him to please.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
