First-Generation Community Circle


Tuesday, September 6th

6:00-7:00pm @ IME Suite

(Templeton 3rd Floor)


IME is hosting a Community Circle for students who self-identifies as first-generation college students on Tuesday, Sept 6th from 6-7pm.


Community Circles are a space where students can find support and talk about their identities, education and other lived experiences. No need to be an expert as this space is for you. Community Circles can vary based on who is facilitating the dialogue and the identities that the space holds.


L&C define first-generation as neither guardians have earned a Bachelor's degree in the United States, however, if you feel like you don't fit this definition and would like to participate, we encourage that you do!
