Last week, we had an opportunity to celebrate, support, and uplift the voices and experiences of our first-generation college students during First-Gen Week! 🌟

The events and programming included a First-Gen Panel, hosted by @clarkisea and @fsaclarku, during which current first-gen Clarkies spoke with local high school students who are part of college access programs, including Bottom Line, Dynamy John S. Laws Academy, and Upward Bound.

Thanks to these incredible students for sharing their experiences and encouraging the next cohort of college-bound high schoolers! 👏
