CU Boulder Puksta Scholar Bridges the Digital Divide in Lafayette

Closing the digital divide

CU-Boulder undergraduate student Balkarn (Kern) Shahi is taking his knowledge of digital and information systems back to his hometown in Lafayette, Colorado, to help close the “digital divide” and other educational opportunity gaps for low-income students.

Kern's work has recently been featured in the Daily Camera, on CU Boulder's homepage, and in CU News.

Kern is a current Puksta Scholar, a program of CU Engage.
