We will have a keynote speaker event the evening of 11/8 featuring first-gen graduate Rockell Bartoli. There will be activities, books to take home, donuts and coffee! We will have a few smaller events the week before to build up celebration with the students such as an ice cream social and tabling with giveaways/ photo ops.
