It helped them start thinking about postsecondary education and why attending college is important. FLOC parents were given the opportunity to sit in with academic and financial aid experts and learn about the college admissions process as well as the means to affording college. Dozens of high school students sat in at a panel discussion of their own with FLOC post secondary students, where high school students asked university students questions about how to choose a college, the differences between college and high school, and even what college students like to do for fun.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-3688 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/college-night-sheds-new-light-on-post-secondary-education\/college-night-2011-146\/'><img width=\"940\" height=\"624\" src=\"https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/college-night-2011-146-1024x680.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/college-night-2011-146-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/college-night-2011-146-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/college-night-2011-146-768x510.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Sara Maddox, Scholars Program Specialist, believes that \u201cthis is one of the most important parts of the Scholars [Program].
