The University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Precollege Enrichment Opportunity Program for Learning Excellence (PEOPLE) started in 1999 with 66 Milwaukee high school students. Since then, PEOPLE has grown to more than 1,300 students in the pipeline ranging from 8th graders to college seniors. The program has two separate units — one for precollege high school students and one for college scholars. Its vision is to be the premier college access program for student success.
