New page

Established in 1965, the '''Double Discovery Center''' serves two completely unrelated purposes. First, it helps low-income New York City college-bound students learn about colleges and careers, improve their academic work, and participate in personal development activities.

It is located on the third floor of [[Lerner]].

-Founded in 1965 by Columbia College undergraduates (most notably, the [[Sachems]]), the mission of the '''Double Discovery Center''' (DDC) is to provide model educational programs, shared experiences and lasting ties through “double discovery” between the Columbia University community and local low-income and first generation college youth and young adults to "ensure academic skills building and focus, high school graduation, college entrance and completion, and responsible adulthood." The DDC office is located on the 3rd floor of [[Lerner Hall]].

 DDC offers a range of campus and school-based services designed to close gaps in education, information, and achievement. The organization enrolls both low-income and first-generation college students who live or attend school in Manhattan. DDC works with over 1,000 students in grades 7 through 12, in addition to young adults through age 27 who have not yet completed a college degree. Some of the programs provided include Saturday classes, tutoring, and an educational summer camp.
