Celebrate First-Gen Success at UNA on November 5!

Are you a first-generation college student? Come celebrate your story and your success at UNA’s National First-Generation College Student Celebration!
Join us Thursday, November 5, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. at Stone Lodge for a come-and-go celebration featuring free snacks and swag, fun games, and opportunities to share your first-gen story. RSVP on Campus Groups! https://cglink.me/2sy/r387354
Stop by our “Share Your Story” boards to respond to prompts about your experiences as a first-generation college student. We’ll display your responses alongside photos of participants to celebrate the experiences, accomplishments, and journeys that make our first-gen community special. Stick around to play board games, connect with others, grab a snack, and celebrate how far you’ve come!
UNA is proud to join the FirstGen Forward Network Class of 2026, strengthening our commitment to supporting first-generation students and helping them thrive throughout their college journey.
Whether you want to share your story, meet other first-gen students, or just stop by for snacks and games, we hope to see you there!
