📸 olivia_at_vt: “I met an incredible rising senior studying human development today. Meet Oziomachukwu Chinaka! She was born in Nigeria and is a first-generation college student. She was reflecting on her college experience now that she’s a senior: "It started off a little rough because I was trying to ... find my path. But after I got going, I found a group of friends. I got involved with African Student Association ... I got on the dance team. I got to meet other Africans. I didn't really know a lot of people my age from my country or other African countries. It was nice to find that community. #virginiatech #firstgenerationcollegestudent”
