BACK OF THE YARDS COLLEGE PREPARATORY HIGH SCHOOL

OUR FIRST CUSHING UNIVERSITY VISIT WAS A CLASS TO REMEMBER.

Cushing University welcomed an incredible class of students prior to moving to our new location at 213 W. Institute Place.

Back of the Yards College Preparatory High School became our inaugural course at our old location, 420 W. Huron Street.

Message
“I AM A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER AND BROUGHT MY DIGITAL MEDIA CAREER PROGRAM STUDENTS TO CUSHING AND NOT ONLY WAS THE STAFF AND TRIP AMAZING, BUT IT GAVE THE STUDENTS A CHANCE TO TALK WITH WORKING PROFESSIONALS ABOUT REAL PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS IN THEIR CAREER PATH. ONE OF THE MOST IMPACTFUL PIECES OF THE CUSHING TOUR AND VARIETY OF WORK WE SAW: IT CHANGED THE CREATIVE PROCESS FOR MY STUDENTS FOREVER AND OPENED UP A WORLD OF CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING THEY HAD NOT YET EXPERIENCED.”

Seeking to find a real-life shop experience for his students, Digital Media Instructor Bobby Anderson contacted Cushing. With his students working toward a certification in the Adobe creative suite, he was curious if Cushing offered field trips.

HIS GOAL? GETTING THEM OUT FROM BEHIND THE COMPUTER SCREEN TO SEE HOW CREATIONS COULD BECOME LARGE FORMAT GRAPHICS.
