Meet the BCM Team

The Whittier Fifth Dimension and associated BCM Community Education Programs are planned, directed, and implemented by a specially selected group of Whittier College students, the BCM Scholars.

Members of the Scholars team are chosen based on rigorous criteria: outstanding scholarship, leadership, and character -- and, especially, demonstrated commitment to social justice through education.

BCM Scholars work one-to-one with children and manage daily program operations in the Fifth Dimension, as well as in other BCM programs held at the Boys & Girls Club of Whittier. They also plan and carry out Whittier College's Day on Campus Program. Program innovation is a responsibility of the Scholars, too; and each year they enrich BCM programs with new learning experiences for children, youth, and families. In return for their program commitments, members of the Scholars team receive college financial assistance through a grant from the BCM Foundation.

Meet the members of the Spring 2012 BCM Scholars Team!
