Explanation

(This amendment provides $750,000 GF the second year to support two signature programs that support early access to Christopher Newport University (CNU) by underrepresented high school students and community college transfer students. The Community Captains program grants early admission to CNU for up to 75 Newport News high school sophomores each year. The Captains Connection program, launched in spring 2019 with Thomas Nelson Community College, will increase the number of job-ready graduates in high-demand technology and engineering fields.)
