“I really value the opportunities I had at UW-Parkside. Like many UW-Parkside students past and present, I was the first person in my family to attend college. I had absolutely no money at all when I was a college student. In fact, if it wasn’t for the comprehensive and sustained kindness of a very gracious family in Kenosha, I would not have been able to attend college at all.

We all started at UW-Parkside; we have that in common. We are all proof that starting at UW-Parkside can open doors well beyond our imagination. We need to give that same opportunity to the next generation.“

From his experiences as a UW-Parkside student and now a UW-Parkside Foundation Board member, Dr. Jeffrey Medin ’85 has seen first-hand the opportunities that open up for students with the support of donors and alumni. He and his wife, Debra Medin, are proud supporters of the Future Focus Fund.
