Every year the Talented 10th hosts an over night college tour to Northern Illinois University.  These students get to experience being in a college environment with their NIU student mentors and staff!

Talented 10th Mentoring Celebrates 35 years of taking our young leaders to college. This year, thanks to funding provided by Cook County Commissioner Stanley Moore, our Young Inventors (7th and 8th gradefs from Fort Dearborn Elementary School) were able to join us.  Students from  Little Black Pearl High School, Douglas High School and Dekalb High School also enjoyed this year's trip.
