LAS 120 - Finding Your Place in the World: Pathways for First Generation College Students

3 hours
College can be a transformative experience, one where students are challenged by new experiences in learning and living. This experience can be exciting, exhilarating, difficult and filled with uncertainty. This seminar will examine how first-generation students bring with them powerful tools rooted in their own experiences of social class, family and community that provide them with a strong foundation for success in college. Readings, discussions and activities will help students understand and engage the intense changes in learning and living that come with a college experience and navigate a pathway that allows them to be true to themselves as they embark on this new journey.
