November 8 is National First-Generation College Celebration Day — and we’re celebrating you!
Join us for a week full of special events, workshops, and programs designed specifically for first-gen students.
As part of the celebration, we will be offering a variety of social and community events, as well as informative and career-focused workshops covering topics like networking, budgeting, and storytelling. These sessions aim to equip first-gen students with practical tools for success while creating space to share stories, connect with peers, and build community.
This campus-wide collaborative initiative is brought to you in partnership with the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, the REEF Support Center, the Center for Leadership and Engagement, the Office of Career Development, and the School of Management.
