Serving the needs of first-generation students has become an imperative for colleges and universities. But, what do the students, themselves, have to say about their experiences?
A panel of first-generation students and graduates join The Chronicle for the next installment of our ongoing virtual forum series, What It Really Takes to Be a Student-Centric Institution. During this special hour-long discussion, our panelists will share their stories and discuss how they define themselves.
- What does it mean to be a first-generation student, from the student perspective?
- What challenges have they faced during their time in college?
- What support systems have worked for them and their families?
