Erin Pitts
Bridges to Baccalaureate & S-STEM Grants, Front Range Community College
Erin has worked for access and success in higher education for 15 years. She has experience with GEAR UP, TRiO, former foster youth, and degree mapping for completion. Erin currently serves as the Success Coach for Bridges to Baccalaureate (B2B) at Front Range Community College (FRCC) in Fort Collins, CO. She is also the Co-Principal Investigator for the S-STEM Grant called Wolves to Rams Scholars. B2B is funded by the NIH and designed to recruit and retain more diverse students in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, with a focus on transfer from FRCC to Colorado State University (CSU) and involvement in undergraduate research. Wolves to Rams is funded by the NSF and is designed to financially support students so that they can maintain academic momentum by reducing outside work hours. Erin spends most of her time advising students one-on-one, as well as collaborating with her CSU colleagues on deciphering curriculum, policies, and transfer admission.
