"Over the summer I had the opportunity to do research at Brown University. It's not an exaggeration to say it was the best summer of my life." If you've wondered what our "Artificial Intelligence for Computational Creativity" NSF Summer REU Site is like (it's a 9-week, fully-funded, summer residential program that brings students to campus to conduct original research with Brown CS faculty and grad students), check out this video from Ezra, one of our alums: https://lnkd.in/ehQpj7dc

First Gens Rise Up 👐 From immigrants to migrants to everyone in-between, could not be more proud to be in this "nomadic" community I call home. Speaking from experience, sense of identity, purpose and even just Career is often a struggle when you are first generation. Pressure is put on you by yourself but also your family. There are times that you feel as if you need to excel because of what sacrifices your family made for you to have opportunity for education, career ect. No one talks about the guilt that comes with being first generation or a immigrant, only the "benifits" you magically have / do not really have. One thing we all have is Resilience. Programs like TRIO exist for a reason and they are beyond essential. Luther College had an amazing program led by Chivonne Blankenship Marlow & Gwen. Passionate people inspire those who need it most. 💡A reason I work for the government and continue to do so is to inspire others but also provide representation where it has not been before. Create and enable systems, policies and programs that are equitable, inclusive and equal. This starts with education. Education is the foundation that often lays your future as an adult. 🌟 What an inspiring story from U.S. Department of State ! Government is an awesome career and often hard to explain especially when you are first generation. Still to this day, my family has no idea what my job entails, but hey they could not be more proud! The federal government is an amazing opportunity for those seeking public service and lifelong careers. Agencies across the board need more first generation & emerging leaders reflecting the worldly majority. 👍Cheers to the resilience and mighty, forging a uncharted path in higher education and Service! #federalgovernment #service #firstgen #riseup #diversitymatters #DiverseVoices
