The First-Gen Pinning Ceremony honors the achievements of our first-generation* college students and first-generation 1.5** students at Clark University.
*At Clark University, a first-generation college student (or first-gen) is defined as an individual whose parents/guardians did not complete a bachelor’s degree. This does not include siblings.
**The student is not necessarily the first in their family to go to college as defined above, but typically navigates college like many other first-generation college students due to self-identifying as not having prior exposure to or knowledge of navigating higher education.
