ASU First-Gen Zone
First-Gen Zone is aimed at informing, empowering and mobilizing ASU faculty and staff regarding the unique experiences of first-generation college students. First-generation students comprise over 35% of the ASU undergraduate and graduate student body and are one of the fastest growing demographics in the nation.
The training will offer research-based information, tangible tips, and actionable steps, with a vision to spark additional dialogue and support for first-generation students at ASU.
