First Generation Nebraska (FGN) Coffee and Connections
The next First Generation Nebraska (FGN) Coffee & Connections event is February 21st from 10 – 11:30 am behind Dunkin’ in Love Library. You are invited to attend to meet and mingle with fellow first-gen students and connect with faculty and staff who are first-gen supporters. This is a low-stakes, no-pressure event. You can stay for as long (or short) as you want, stop by with questions, or come for nothing but vibes. Members of the First Gen Advisory board will be around for questions and conversations!
There will be offering *free* coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and donuts, and there could be button making again!
Apply to join the First Gen Advisory Board!
It’s that time of year again - First Generation Nebraska (FGN) seeks applications from UNL students, faculty, staff, and alumni who wish to serve as members of the FGN Advisory Board.
The FGN Advisory Board meets three times a semester during the academic year to provide feedback to the Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor’s Office regarding how to best support first-generation students, staff, and faculty. In addition, board members commit to active participation in FGN events and pledge to co-lead and support first-gen initiatives, such as the Coffee & Connections event above and First Gen Week. The term of service is for two consecutive academic years.
Applications are due by Friday, March 14, 2025. Applications should be submitted online here.
