Alumnus Caleb
Caleb started his academic journey at Minneapolis College in 2008. Like many young adults, Caleb knew the only way to a high wage career was through a college degree, he just didn’t know what that degree would be in. He felt directionless.
The Power of You program, a tuition-free pathway to an associate degree for recent high school graduates, gave him the guidance he was seeking. With the financial support and the academic advising offered to him through Power of You, his dreams began to take shape. Caleb completed his associate degree in liberal arts at Minneapolis College. He then transferred to the University of St. Thomas where he received a bachelor of arts in computer science.
Starting at Delta Airlines as a baggage handler in 2011, Caleb has since climbed the ranks where he is now a business system analyst working in service recovery technologies to support and improve the way the airline handles delays and cancellations.
Caleb is grateful for Minneapolis College and the Power of You program that offered him the support he needed to jumpstart his career. He proudly serves on the Minneapolis College Foundation board as the Alumni Network chair, eager to assist others on their journey to success.
