How Southeastern Wisconsin is closing equity gaps

Higher education has a well-documented equity gap problem. Countless studies show that colleges graduate low-income students, first-generation students, and students of color at lower rates than their peers from majority populations.

Studies also show that the population of incoming college students will only become more diverse. We must eliminate persistent equity gaps at our colleges and universities to ensure that all students have the same opportunities for success during and after their time at our institutions.  

At EAB, we are partnering with regional cohorts of community colleges and four-year institutions in the Moon Shot for Equity initiative to close equity gaps in their region by 2030. Watch the video to learn why leaders of our first region, Southeastern Wisconsin, chose to partner with EAB on Moon Shot.
