HSC community invited to the School of Public Health First-Generation Celebration

In conjunction with First-Generation College Celebration Week, the School of Public Health will host a Coffee Break open to all faculty/staff, alumni, and students.

School of Public Health first generation students graduating in December 2022 will also receive their First Gen stole to proudly wear at the Commencement Ceremony. Stoles are provided to BS, MHA, MPH, MS and PhD graduates.

Stop by for FREE coffee, bagels, donuts and tell us why you are proud to be a first-generation college student! According to the federal definition used by TRIO programs, if your parent/guardian doesn’t have a four-year college degree, you’re a first-generation college student – or “First Gen,” as it’s often referred to by WVU Student Success.

For more information about First Gen resources provided by West Virginia University, visit the Student Success First Gen website.

When: Wednesday, Nov. 9, 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
Where: Health Sciences South 3301 (beside the Student Services Suite)
