Association History
Our HistoryExplore the legacy of the association from its early years as the Western College Reading Association (WCRA) to its continued growth as the Western College Reading & Learning Association (WCRLA). From WCRA to WCRLAThe association’s roots began in the late 1960s, when college educators and leaders came together around a shared commitment to reading, learning support, and student success. Over time, the organization expanded its mission and identity to reflect the broader work of learning assistance professionals and the evolving needs of higher education. This history page preserves the legacy of those leaders and the milestones that helped shape the association across generations. |
