Freshmen dive into higher education opportunities at IU Kokomo
Submitted by Hamilton Heights School Corporation
The Hamilton Heights High School freshman class (Class of 2028) recently embarked on an exciting visit to IU Kokomo, immersing themselves in the campus experience last month.
They explored post-secondary options as part of the Explore section of the Portrait of a Graduate curriculum and Freshman Seminar. Every freshman participated in this event through the high school’s Guaranteed Experiences, a key component of the Reaching New Heights Initiative.

During their visit, students engaged with professors, toured the campus, and discovered the wealth of opportunities IU Kokomo has to offer. The following student reflections of the interactive experience highlight the impact of this experience:
- Matthew Lynas said, “I think it was a very good experience, and it gave me a good idea of what college would be like. The tour guide was very helpful and gave lots of information that was helpful.”
- Zayra Pena said, “It gave me a clear view of what college life looks like as well as an opportunity to see the financial side of it like budgeting.”
- Sawyer Berry said, “It was fun to see all the things that they do at IU. The crime thing was really cool, and it was nice to see that they have an esports team.”
Special thanks to IU Kokomo for hosting this up close and personal experience for Hamilton Heights’ freshman class.
