#009 - Today on the show, we are joined by the Dean of Student Services at East Los Angeles College, Miguel Dueñas, who will share with us valuable information about the importance of community colleges and the benefits students receive from their Transfer Centers and Dual Enrollment Programs.
 
Dean Dueñas describes the ways in which high school students can advance their college education by joining Dual Enrollment Programs. In fact, he will tell us about students who have graduated from college with AA degrees a week before graduating from high school.
 
The Transfer Center at East Los Angeles College has helped a great number of students by guiding them, mentoring them, and ensuring that they stay on track to complete the requirements to transfer to important 4-year colleges and universities.
 
Dean Dueñas will give us his perspective on how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting higher education, and the ways he, and others like him, are playing an active role in ensuring students stay the course. He will also give parents of high school and college kids advice on how to provide them the one thing they constantly need, support.
