“Most young people aren't getting advice about the educational and career opportunities available to them. They’re not learning to understand the future labor market or the high growth market they’re entering.” — Charlotte Cahill at #JFFPathways >> jffevents.org/ptpspring

@AcademicChatter @FirstGenProgram YESSS! #FirstGen researcher here & we study #FirstGeneration college grads :). This identity can be an asset - we are flexible, agile, and ambitious .
Yes! Community colleges deserve investment 👇
Community colleges are engines of socioeconomic equity in the United States. #CCMonth #comm_college
Sometimes departments have funds for students to attend academic conferences - so don't let the cost of attending be a barrier to not submitting research or proposals to conferences in your discipline #FirstGen #AcademicChatter #HigherEdLife
Tell me something that's "common knowledge" but mind bogglingly new information for #firstgen #PhDs ? #phdlife #academiclife #AcademicChatter
It's #communitycollege awareness month. Here's a sneak peek of our upcoming paper on the First Gen landscape in Arkansas @ArkHigherEd . AR CC's ranked by % of #firstgen population:
What she said 👇 #firstgenCollegeStudents - ask your advisor or professors what the main conferences are in your field, apply for reviewing proposals, and ask your department to fund you attending. Conferences are places to network for jobs - get your name out there! #firstgen
Doc students: one of the best ways to improve your concise writing skills & conference proposal skills is to be a conference proposal reviewer. As a 1st & 2nd year doc student -I've reviewed conference proposals for @AaaceTweet, Adult Education in Global Times, & @FirstgenCenter
@Eliana_Murillo Yep. Our mantra: no agenda, no attenda.
YESSS 😍. Being a #firstgen means you are adaptable, ambitious, and have grit. Be loud and proud about your accomplishments!

@PhDVoice To show it could be done for those who follow behind me, including my daughter
👏👏 We survived & thrived, now can open door for others - but we cannot pour from an empty cup. Prioritize self-care this season #firstgencollegegrads
As #firstgen students, we tend to shoulder the responsibility to pave the way for those coming behind us. That self-imposed pressure can be overwhelming and unhealthy at times. Let’s remember that we must prioritize our health and wellness to be able to efficiently lead the way.
