Cultivating a Community of Excellence – Supporting First-Generation Students at Colorado State University

Presented by Michael Silvey, M.Ed; Myanne Hamm, M.Ed

Colorado State University has recently just been designated a First-Gen Forward institution, but what does this mean? Come learn about how the first-generation, low-income college student identity shows up on our campus, and nationally, and how you can better serve students who fit into this identity. Throughout this presentation, you will have opportunities to connect with other staff and faculty to explore your own understandings of these identities while also breaking down preconceptions you might have when working with these students. By then end of this presentation, you will be able to gain recommendations on how to better serve these students within your roles both on and off campus.
