First-generation college students often possess different cultural values, practices, and goals than those of students from historically college-going families. Scholars must be able to share their first-gen story authentically and feel confident acknowledging the positive attributes of their first-gen experience as they begin to navigate professional, educational, and career pathways. This workshop is designed to provide first-gen scholars the opportunity to gain the tools necessary to discuss their story in an environment where they are guided by first-gen administrators who have come before them. All are welcome!
