Georgia Gwinnett College's First-Generation College Celebration
November 8

2021 First-Generation College Celebration

Theme: Creating A Path of Resiliency and Success

The Student Success Advising Center is coordinating several events and activities to commemorate National First-Generation Day [November 8th] . Given that GGC’s semester ends early, and rather than just host an event on one day [11/8], SSAC will be coordinating First-Gen Week [11/1-11/8]. There will be a cake cutting on 11/8 to celebrate. Please see attached flyer.
