Did you know that 10% of current William & Mary undergraduates are the first in their families to attend college? Our first-generation students are high achieving and persistent but some struggle to find community and navigate the “hidden curriculum.” Join us to hear from first-generation students, learn what W&M is doing to assist them and find out how you can help.
