Concord University First Generation Committee

First Generation Committee

The First-Generation Committee was started in 2019 by a small number of Concord faculty and staff who shared a common goal. The purpose was, and still is, to celebrate and support CU First-Generation students. With each passing year, we are developing and growing our support, opportunities and way to honor our first-generation students.
