In a multimedia article featuring several student voices, The SCOPE Boston paints a powerful picture of the community created by the Dorchester Clemente Course. Audio sound bites provide a chance to hear students discuss their journeys in their own words, creating a chorus of voices that illustrate the Clemente experience. Alumni Judith Foster, Ginette Powell, and Alexandra Perez discuss how Clemente's intimate classroom experience and supportive environment allowed them to learn for the sake of learning and reignite dreams of higher education.
"Learning ought to be free. Knowledge ought to be free. And Clemente opens that, where you get to taste the scholarly works," says alumna Judith Foster. "For someone like me, that was just amazing, because I love learning."
