The Center for Social Justice and Community Impact, in collaboration with Alumni Relations and Academic Affairs, will be hosting Wheaton’s first ever Focus on First-Gen Week. This week of campus events will celebrate the first-generation college student community, an identity shared by nearly 20% of Wheaties! Events include:

On Wednesday (2/7) at 5:00 pm an Alumni Panel in the Mary Lyon Holman Room, brought to you by Alumni Relations, will feature a panel of Wheaton alums who will discuss their experiences, as first-gen students during their time at Wheaton and beyond. A reception with hors d’oeuvres will follow in the Woolley Room at 6:30 pm.
