LANSING, Mich. (WZMQ) – Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer joined state Sen. Sarah Anthony (D-Lansing), the Michigan Department of Lifelong Education, Advancement, and Potential (MiLEAP), students, and partners today to celebrate more than 7,000 Michigan Reconnect students in the program’s first-ever graduation ceremony.

Since its launch in 2021, more than 7,000 Michigan students statewide have graduated through the Reconnect program, which provides financial assistance to community and tribal college students over the age of 21. Today’s honorees include Reconnect grads from across the state, including here in the U.P. The celebration recognized the significant accomplishments of those who took advantage of the michigan reconnect scholarship.

“My goal is to have your back and to make michigan the best state to live, work, and invest in.” Governor Whitmer said. “Each of you embodies what it means to be a Michigander you don’t quit, you work hard, and you get things done. so congratulations once again on your graduation.”
