Ben Hunter flashes an enthusiastic thumbs-up after graduating from Project SEARCH last week at UMSL. Looking on is his fellow graduate Hannah Dietrich. Hunter and Dietrich were among seven graduates of the high school transition program, which was born out of a collaboration between Patricia Kopetz, the E. Desmond Lee Endowed Professor of Education for Children with Disabilities at UMSL, and Epworth Children & Family Services in Webster Groves, Mo.
