Trevor's Road To College

This project was completed by Melissa and Naomi. Through this project we explored the college process. We both felt that this is a subject that is very confusing and a system that isn’t completely fair. We decided to put our findings into a children’s book. We tell the story of a boy named Trevor that comes from a college educated family. It is assumed that he too will attend until his father loses his job. It is then up to Trevor to find a way to get to college.  

It was important to us to show the reality of the college process. Attending doesn’t always give  the security it promises but to also highlight that it is important to show that with hard work it is not impossible. While looking for other pieces of literature that talks about the college process and its hidden features.

Really like your drawings! (especially the one with Jimmy Fallon) Loved how you took the importance of the college process and presented it as a children's book!
