A group of WSU Tri-Cities TRIO scholars recently took a cross-country visit to Harvard Law School, where they learned about graduate pathways into law. Students even got some friendly meeting time (and photos!) with MA State Rep. Chris Worrell and City of Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. Go Cougs!

It's not too late to get the most out of your summer! Late Summer Session courses begin June 22 and June 29, so there's still time to register.

Taking classes during the summer is a great way to get on the fast track to finishing your degree or to get back on track if you dropped a class earlier in the year. Late summer courses are only 6 or 7 weeks long, so you can plan your class schedule around your other summer commitments.

WSU Tri-Cities mechanical engineering student Eric Mayo-Gutierrez is making the most of every opportunity, from being a peer mentor and research assistant to earning a scholarship that’s taking him to Japan for an internship.

As the first person in his family to attend college, he’s thankful for the opportunities and support that have helped him along the way.

“I want to help show that even though we don’t come from a lot, we can still do so much,” he says.
