First Gen Graduation Celebration

May 16, 2025 – 7:00pm
Student Center Multipurpose Room

The Office of First-Generation Support and Engagement is thrilled to celebrate our first-gen graduates! In late spring, registration will open for students to register themselves and their family, friends, and guests for this free event. Each student will be recognized, receive their first-gen graduation chord, and have the opportunity to have their photo taken solo and/or with their support system.
