OAB Auditorium & OAB 251

first gen students

This special event features a student panel and portrait gallery where Fresno City College students have the opportunity to share their stories of triumph and struggles as the first in their family to pursue higher education. With over 50% of our campus being First Gen, this event is important.  

This year, EOPS is working with TRIO, Dream Center, International Students, Puente, Umoja, RAIN, USEEA, Basic Needs, NextUp, Rising Scholars, CalWORKS and Chel to make this event possible. The First-Generation Day team is currently working to secure funds to cover cost for food, and the portraits prints that highlight our 35 first generation students.
