The First-Generation Students Association was created to serve the interests of students who are first-generation college students and first-generation Americans by creating an organization that is united by the common bond of being the first member(s) of their family to attend college or live in the United States.
The mission of the First-Generation Students Association is to (1) establish connections and create a community among first-generation students on campus, especially between 1Ls/LLM students and upperclass students; (2) provide resources and support for first-generation students; (3) provide leadership opportunities for first-generation students; (4) provide an opportunity for future students and alumni of the Association in the legal profession to connect and interact; and (5) sponsor events, host speakers, and coordinate activities furthering the Association’s goals and interests.
