Academic Support and Mentoring

Department - Academic

Contact: Megan Elsen

Mission
The ASM team believes that:
A diverse and inclusive environment enhances everyone├óÔé¼Ôäós experience.
It is our responsibility to directly address the systemic inequalities and injustices that exist in our institution.
Each individual has unique identities, strengths, and abilities.
There are no limits to what any individual is capable of learning.
We all learn better through collaboration and soliciting multiple perspectives.
Everyone should have equitable access to inclusive and welcoming learning environments and feel comfortable in the spaces in which they learn.
Failure is an inherent part of everyone├óÔé¼Ôäós experience, and is what leads to growth.
Everyone's voice has value, and each person should have opportunities to be heard.
Everyone should be supported in their unique goals.
Based upon these beliefs, ASM's mission is to:
Provide innovative support services and resources to ensure educational access and personal success for every student.

Henry W. Bloch & Marion H. Bloch Scholars Program

Department - Academic

Contact: Margaret Wight, Email group officers

Mission
The H&R Block Foundation created the Henry W. Bloch Scholars Program (HWB) in honor of Henry Bloch's retirement. HWB Scholars are students in whom Henry could see himself: students who may not be considered for traditional scholarships due to past academic experience, but demonstrate the drive and determination to succeed. Since 2001, this unique scholarship program has provided funding toward the cost of full tuition and fees.

In 2019, our program was given opportunity to serve even more local students through an expansion of our current scholarship, and the implementation of a new scholarship: The Marion H. Bloch Scholars Program (MHB). MHB is a complement to HWB and is designed to attract, encourage and support higher performing students living in urban environments in greater Kansas City.

With the addition of MHB, the Bloch Scholars Program became an all-embracing program with a diverse pool of participants. Although UMKC Bloch Scholars differ in major, academic year, educational background, life experience and career goals, they all find commonality through being a Bloch Scholar.
