MISSION

The LUCY Initiative, through the Michigan Scholars Program, responds to the growing need to prepare undergraduate students to interact effectively in a complex and diverse world. The study of the lives of children in urban settings provides an excellent intellectual context for this process. Students have the opportunity to prepare themselves intellectually and personally, through their college experience, to engage actively in the intellectual, ethical, economic, scientific, and justice-seeking challenges of contemporary society and, in particular, its urban centers. The LUCY Initiative provides courses and co-curricular activities that permit students to make connections between their academic inquiry and their civic engagement.
