National First-Generation College Celebration & Invitation to Share Your Story
October 17, 2022
Dear Staff, Faculty, and Administrators:
The HSU TRIO programs invite you to help promote our campus celebration of the National First-Generation College Day on November 8th. There are multiple ways you can participate, all of which are intended to acknowledge, support, and welcome our HSU community of first-generation students*.
Cal Poly Humboldt Fast Fact: In Fall 2021, 47% of enrolled students were first-generation students, representing nearly half of our students and an overall increase of 3% over the past 10 years.
Please indicate how you would like to participate in our on-campus celebration on November 8th.
Staff, Faculty, and Administrators who were also first-generation college are especially encouraged to "tell your story".
*First-Generation Students are students whose parents have not attained a four year degree.
