The 2020 celebration event will be a panel discussion with Georgia Tech faculty and staff as they share their experiences of being the first student in their family to graduate from college. All are welcome, from the first-gen student looking for guidance to the faculty member seeking to understand the student experience better. 

Through this event, we will celebrate the success and perseverance of first-generation college students, faculty, and staff who contribute so greatly to the Georgia Tech community. This event is sponsored by the FirstGen student organization, the Georgia Tech Library, and Parent & Family Programs along with the Office of Undergraduate Education.
