First Gen Breakfast
Details
Who is a first-generation student? Someone whose parents or legal guardians have not completed a 4-year college or university degree.
First-Generation College Celebration (FGCC) is celebrated annually on November 8 to commemorate the signing of the Higher Education Act (“HEA”) of 1965 by then-President Lyndon B. Johnson. This act created federal financial aid programs to fund students’ educations and made key investments in colleges and universities. FGCC strives not only to celebrate first-gen students’ contributions to their communities but also to occasion systemic social change by dismantling barriers to first-generation student success.
