Celebrating our incredible First-Gen Cardinals! 👌 Here at UIW, First-Gen Week brought our community together through open mics, digital storytelling, and a campus-wide celebration, each moment shining a light on determination, heritage and success. “Our first-gen students are future leaders, people who will uplift families, strengthen neighborhoods and inspire others to pursue their dreams. Their success is our shared success,” shared Eva M. Fernández, PhD, provost and vice president for Academic Affairs. A huge thank-you to our First-Gen Committee for orchestrating all the fun and meaningful events this week to celebrate our students! #FirstGen #UIW #GoCardinals
