We’re thrilled to share highlights from our “First-Gen en Blanc: Monter de Niveau (Level Up)” celebration! It was filled with so much excitement and meaningful moments. From gathering across campus and kicking off lunch with the traditional napkin wave, to celebrating academic successes, thanking our generous donors, and launching balloons with inspiring messages, the day truly captured the spirit of our first-gen community. #FirstGenPride #LevelUp #LeDinerEnBlanc #FirstGensWin #StudentSuccess @firstgen.forward

Reflecting on an incredible week of being celebrate as a First Gen Student. I’m honored to have been inducted into the Kappa Omega Chapter of Alpha Alpha Alpha (Tri-Alpha) Honors Society, a milestone that holds deep meaning for me.🌟I’m also thankful to TRIO SSS for recognizing my hard work with a certificate for maintaining a GPA above 3.0. This journey isn’t always easy, but it’s moments like these that remind me of how far l’ve come and inspire me to keep pushing forward. Here’s to all the first-gen students pursuing their dreams and breaking barriers. We are the legacy. 💙✨ #TheeFirstGen #TriAlphaProud #TRIOSSS #Grateful #girldad #firstgenenblanc🤍 #LEVELUP🩶🐅
