Nationally, 54% of undergraduates identify as first-generation college students (Center for First-generation Student Success, 2024). And often unspoken in our conversations about #firstgen is its intersection with family income. Parental income for first-generation college students remained steady at $41,000 since data was last published by the Center for First-generation Student Success, and this highlights the continued need for services (#TRIOworks) and financial supports that empower our first-gen students to keep pursuing their educational and career goals. Bringing it down to the lived experience level, there is an indelible quality to the first-generation student experience that connects all of us that have and continue to trek on the journey. To be first-gen is to punch an entrance ticket to a world we and our families didn't know previously. It's a testament that we dream big and go the distance, in spite of the systemic inequities that undergird our higher education system, particularly in our rural communities. We are poverty cycle breakers; we are worthy of the opportunity that education beyond high school affords us. Thankful to continue doing the work in supporting our #Scholars in community with my colleagues at The Ford Family Foundation and our wonderful campus partners!
Our staff recently commemorated National First-Generation College Celebration Day, an annual event held in November marking the signing of the Higher Education Act of 1965. This Act opened doors for generations of students through the Pell Grant, federal TRIO programs and more. Seventy percent of our Scholars are first-generation college students, and we know their experience and wisdom make us all better. Creative and bold thinkers, first-generation college students are unafraid of charting new paths for themselves and their families. #CelebrateFirstGen 🎓
