We encourage our USD community to celebrate the success of first-generation college students, graduate students, faculty, and staff on our campus in any and every way possible. This year, the USD First-Generation Action Team is collaborating with various USD campus partners and hosting a variety of events and activities leading to November 8, 2019, which is the official national first-generation college celebration. We encourage you to wear your USD first-gen pin!

Please use #CelebrateFirstGen when sharing photos and information on social media to engage in a national conversation and celebrate not only our students, staff and faculty on our campus, but across the country! An important component of our First- Generation College Celebration is sharing the narratives of USD first-generation college students, graduate students, faculty, and staff with others!
