UC Berkeley is one of just 29 institutions nationwide selected to receive a 2026 #CelebrateFirstGen grant! 🎉

The award will help expand opportunities to celebrate first-generation students, recognize their contributions and strengthen community across campus. This recognition comes as @ucberkeleyofficial's @reopatcal celebrates 60 years of helping students access, navigate, and thrive at UC Berkeley.

Here's to 60 years of first-gen stories, achievements, and community at Berkeley, and all that's still to come! 💛🐻

🔗 Read more at the link in bio. Three individuals are smiling and posing with signs celebrating first-generation college students. The background features a University of California, Berkeley banner and blue and gold balloons. The signs read "First and not the last," "Public Health," and "Berkeley First-Gen.

Last month, @mpacker49 had the pleasure of presenting “From Access to Industry: Expanding Pathways to Arts, Entertainment & Design Credentials” at the Council for Opportunity in Education conference in San Diego alongside Heath Alexander from @studysmart_us

We explored how TRIO programs can connect students’ creative interests to college and career opportunities through hands-on learning, industry mentorship, portfolios, and meaningful credentials.

A key takeaway: students need opportunities to demonstrate what they can do. A film, design project, or music production can become evidence of their skills, and a starting point for their next step.

Thank you to @coeworks and everyone who joined us. We’re excited to continue working with TRIO program leaders to expand access to careers in arts, entertainment, and design!
