  • First-generation student group

    Day/time TBD.

    Description: Do you identify as a first-generation student? This group will focus on building community with others who identify as first-generation students (an individual whose parents/caregiver did not complete a baccalaureate degree), discuss strengths and challenges group members experience, and explore strategies to move members toward self-defined success. The focus of the group will primarily be based on the needs of the group members, and some topics may include culture, stress reduction, social identity, conflict between home life and university life, relationships, school-related stressors, imposter syndrome, and self-care. The group will allow students to explore self-awareness and how they fit in the larger culture of UNR in a safe and open environment.
