First-Gen Celebration Week
Each year, students are proudly recognized for being first-generation during National First-Generation College Student Celebration Week, a time to honor the achievements, resilience, and impact of first-generation college students across the nation. And, at Jacksonville State University, we’re thrilled to join in the celebration!
Throughout our First-Generation College Student Celebration Week, we shine a spotlight on Jax State’s remarkable first-gen students, faculty, staff, and alumni through exciting campus events and thoughtful workshops, and symposiums. Expect inspiring stories, powerful videos, and opportunities to connect and share your own first-gen. journey.
Join us each year during the week of November 8th, as we celebrate the courage and accomplishments of our first-generation Gamecocks! Your story inspires the next generation to dream big, achieve more, and make history at Jax State!
